I understand that, and apologize for this confusion.
I thought romfs -> cbfs per an earlier thread.
That is completely correct. It was unfortunate to have so much work pass by the list before the final name was established.
Is romtool the same as romfs?
The original proposal consisted of a file format description suitable for PC firmware, and source code for a utility that worked with this file format. The file format was originally called ROMFS, and the utility was originally called romtool. This code has been committed to the svn repo, and various changes have been made to introduce the use of this new file format, and the utility through coreboot.
The name of the file format is changing to CBFS. The description remains the same, only the name changes. Likewise for the utility. We're now discussing what would be a good name for the utility.
