I'm afraid that I will have to write my own part of code which will be responsible to execute a boostrap. At this moment I use the old version of coreboot project (practically LinuxBIOS 2.0.0), because only in this release my target board (MSM800BEV) is fully supported out of the box.
It would really be nice if you could help make this target work with the updated coreboot sources.
I would really like to do this job, but unfortunately I currently work on the quite urgent project and I don't enough time and energy to join to another project. Anyway, I am impressed with your work and I hope that I will be able to help in the future.
Then there are basically two choices;
- Backport support for high tables from current code
- Fix current code for your target
I would strongly prefer option 2.
I've decided to write my own code to execute bootstrap from MBR. At this moment I test the functions which are responsible for ATA protocol support. If I have any positive results, I will post my observations.
Can you show us boot logs from your working version and from the very latest version?
I'm going to do this as soon as possible.
