Since we agreed upon SELF, I think the patch that implements SELF in v3 can also drop ELF loading in one step. Any takers?
get me the patch and I'll test it. ELF loading in the BIOS seemed like a great idea but has been a real hassle since day one. It burned us very badly on a linux alpha cluster we installed at sandia in 2001. I would love to see it removed.
Does the current SELF code allow per-segment compression selection? The SELF wiki page http://www.coreboot.org/SELF suggests this is not the case. How do we load data files to a prespecified location? The entry point is a mandatory part of the SELF spec because it also works as terminator.
