Hello Ed,
We have received the truxton board a few days ago.
I have compiled coreboot-v2 as well as FILO and created the rom image. I've placed the image in the flash using flashrom, everything there went smoothly.
I tried to launch the system but the system does not boot. Is coreboot on truxton supposed to output something to the G550 PCIe gfx card shipped along with the truxton mainboard or not? The default AMI bios is able to do that obviously.
The board state after a reboot is
1) No active VGA output 2) The two seven segments displays on the main board is display 80
I am still waiting my UART dongle so I cannot say if anything goes out from the com ports.
Is it a normal behavior Ed or my coreboot image is simply not working?
In advance, thank you for your pointers.
With my best regards,
Arnaud

We are designing a mainboard powered by an EP80579 and I came across coreboot.
I've seen corebot v2 supports the Truxton EP80579 Development kit. However I cannot get any relevant information about Truxton.
Is this the "official" intel development kit (EP80579TRXDK) or something else? I wanted to order the exact board coreboot supports and use this as a reference design.
Truxton is the mainboard in the official Intel EP80579 development kit.
