Dear Taiidan,
According to your previous letter, does H8SCM be a pre-PSP AMD mainboard? If yes, I will buy one as soon as possible.
Thank for your response.

Dear All,
I hope I can be a contributor in coreboot so I plan buy a mainboard and use tiano core to port it. Maybe ASUS P2B is a good idea but I have some question.
1. EC code doesn?t be included in coreboot, how can I include EC code into my coreboot bin file? Use ME?
2. How can I get EC bin file from OEM bios and how can I get VBIOS from OEM bios?
3. I have ME9, ME10 and ME11 firmware now, which ME I must use to integrate my coreboot rom and EC
4. How can I use SF-100 to flash bios into mainboard, welding jumper?
5. Most coreboot projects don?t use tiano core to port them, but I am a OEM BIOS engineer and I already use tiano architecture 7 years, so I hope I can use tiano core to be payload, does everyone know which coreboot project does use tiano core to be payload?
P.S. Please forgive my poor English, thank!!

Well no, I don?t think it could be, or the person was not well informed.
We are not a vendor, but a hosting/cloud company, so we rent servers or service running on them, we do not ship them.
Also none of those servers with coreboot were available yet during 34C3.
Anyway, you are welcome to come to my talk at FOSDEM for more details ;-)
Best Regards,
Julien

it wasn't me. Though I remember somewhere around December somebody
reported DMI information on IRC from a cloud server running on an ADI
something from Adlink, likely some microserver. Also, not sure if
related, there where some questions from Dell employees on the ML last
year.
Generally, you can expect microservers with coreboot nowadays (anything
supported by Intel's IoT group). But no fully fledged powerful server
(which is still 100% unsupported by Intel). So if you are looking for
the latter, your options are (as mentioned before) stale AMD systems,
OpenPower (not coreboot but open), modern Intel (maybe AMD too?) servers
shipping with UEFI that you can reduce (NERF, not open but best boot
experience you can get with proprietary firmware (beside coreboot+blobs)
I guess).
If you are looking for microservers, I'd go around and ask. Starting
with Adlink.
Nico

There's test-i386.c in QEMU which seems to be quite complete.
I also found a paper "Design and Testing of a CPU Emulator" from
MS Research[1]. The mentioned Giano emulator can be downloaded here (MSI installer):
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52537
but I did not find the test suite from a quick look.

If you're talking IoT range, AMD APU Coreboot can be seen at
http://www.pcengines.ch/apu2.htm for example.

Nothing simpler, my dear friend Ron.
Do the following steps (on your
Linux/Debian/Ubuntu/OpenSUSE/RHEL/Fedora/Centos):
[1] Go to YOCTO project: https://www.yoctoproject.org
[2] Go to the following site: https://www.yoctoproject.org/downloads
[3] Do git clone Rocko: git clone -b rocko git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git
[4] Go to poky/ directory, do the following: . oe-init-build-env
[5] go to build/conf, and find there local.conf
[6] there are two variables there:
#MACHINE ?= "qemux86"
#MACHINE ?= 'qemux86-64"
[7] Un-comment one (whatever you need), save the file, exit from the
local.conf, and do the following
bitbake -k core-image-minimal
[8] When it finishes (after 3 to 6 hours), do the: runqemu qemux86(-64),
U R all set!
Enjoy!
Zoran

Isn't that board is from 1999? I don't think that would be useful.
I suggest the H8SCM ported to coreboot's native fam15h init, as you can
pick one up for $30, they support IOMMU and the old but still fast
enough to be useful C32 Opteron's.

EC is generally embedded on the motherboard and coreboot isn't that
involved with it.

Not sure, I hope someone else will answer.

Instructions are on the wiki.

Depends on the CPU version.
Of course if you are looking to learn you can also port a pre-PSP AMD
board which doesn't need any of this, I suggest this as there are some
very cheap and widely available board models that are still new enough
to be worth doing.
I also suggest the ivy bridge xeon counterpart, that would also be useful.
> 4. How can I use SF-100 to flash bios into mainboard, welding jumper?
Hm? I use a USB CH341A with my removable dip8 chips and a test clip for
the soic-8 chips.

You are able to pick a payload with any coreboot board.

Hi folks,
I've read about the "discussion over beers or another prefered beverage" at FOSDEM 2018 a couple of days ago here on this list. Since I definitely plan to attend FOSDEM this year again (I got my talk in the testing and automation devroom accepted), I was wondering what the requirements for joining this bevereage round are and if there are already any concrete plans for that.
Cheers, Daniel
