I'm trying to build a rom with filo for my tyan s2885. I'd like to write a generic build tutorial for the lay person, or at least for non-programmers (me). I have identified some general steps, and have some questions.
Some steps: ===================== Procedure 1: get a payload source, e.g. filo-trunk configure and make the payload make the payload available for Procedures 2 or 3
Procedure 2: check out coreboot-v2 source cd into coreboot-v2 directory make menuconfig make
Procedure 3: cd into targets/vendor/model edit Config.lb make
Procedure 4: Test the rom (qemu, etc) Put it in the machine and go! (flashrom)
Questions: =================== Do I have to do both Procedures 2 and 3 if kconfig works for me? And in what order?
Where is kconfig looking for payload.elf? It didn't seem to like the absolute path that I put into menuconfig. IIRC someone mentioned that it doesn't like non-'sane' paths.
Thanks for any help & suggestions.
FYI flashrom works on my board, I upgraded and verified my vendor bios with it. I'm using the push-pin method of chip-wrangling and have bought some 16Mbit flash to burn.
