Dear Karl-Heinz,

last time was with a yonah / 945gm / ich7 based system. i think that was 3-4 years ago (coreboot v2?)
maybe that statement is somewhat subjective and i have just more experience with stuff like that in the meantime. i don't have that code anymore but i think things a just more straight forward and understandable.
moreover i found it was a lot easier to get a working build that at least puts out some postcodes and debug log. i think it didn't even compile without modifications the last time. an very important reason is that i have exactly the same board - having (intel) reference boards actively supported makes starting much easier. last time it was hard to find a supported mainboard that could be bought somewhere.
thank you for the detailed response! It’s useful, because when I look at code a lot over a long period of time, at least I miss how it improves/changes over time. So the view from outside is good to know.
Thanks,
Paul
