Hello Coreboot,
Today I have decided to change strategy, and instead to include GRUB2 as payload, to my 'stick and ropes' crippled Coreboot POC from December 2012... To add rather SeaBIOS.
Here is the pointer to what I did: http://www.coreboot.org/SeaBIOS#Linux And I almost succeeded to boot to HDD, but when it jumped to it, it stalled (end of serial log)!
I added both VGA and serial support to SeaBIOS, but two things happened: [1] VGA INT 0x15 does NOT (still) respond and... [2] Unable to lock ram - bridge not found
Log pytty(2).txt is attached to this email, and end of the log shown/imported at the end of this email.
Please, please, any tips, tricks, observations, advices? _______

Thank you, Zoran _______ Most of The Time you should be "intel inside" to be capable to think "out of the box".
