Hello, I am new to coreboot and I've been using this tutorial as guidance:
http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU_Build_Tutorial

I've had help from the IRC channel as well and I think it will be a good idea to get help here as well:

here's the log of what I've done:

1. downloaded qemu coreboot filo libpayload
2. Built qemu 
3. built libpayload > error in make menuconfig (this was definitely an ncurses.h error so the terminal graphics were the problem)
