OK. So I seem to have got my build deploying seaBIOS (0.4.1) , but appear to have hit a major obstacle.
No USB Keyboard Support!? This is a complete show stopper for me.
I've seen a thread from last summer talking about adding USB Kbd support:: http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2008-December/043714.html
Has anything happened anywhere on this ??
I'm now trying to decide whether I fancy my chances of adding CBFS support to FILO or USB keyboard to SeaBIOS more !!!

Just a couple of questions.
How does the ACPI/MP/PIR Table support in SeaBIOS relate to what I already have in Coreboot ?
It's there for Qemu.
I note the comment text says that these options are for
emulators (or
Win32 ??)
Can I safely disable these options for linux only support ?
Yes. Make sure to set #define CONFIG_COREBOOT 1 and #define CONFIG_OPTION_ROMS_DEPLOYED 0 For your first test you could do DEPLOYED 1 since you are copying the VGA BIOS to 0xc0000 in coreboot. For the long term, though, it would be better to let SeaBIOS handle it all.
I also set #define CONFIG_DEBUG_SERIAL 1 and change the debug level.
Thanks, Myles
