Ive just joined the mailing list, to see if it is possible to get an Asus G1 (laptop) use coreboot.
Maybe. You could try a coreboot image for kontron/986lcd-m and see if you get any serial output. But please check where the serial port is on the kontron board, it may be on a superio, which may not be available on the G1 - in that case you need another debug output method..
First hickup : flashrom is able to read from the flash chip.. but cannot erase/write it.
I'll have to do all the procedure with the programmer.
