Dear Coreboot Developers,
I am very impressed with coreboot and agree with the importance of open source firmware. I am looking at your list of supported server motherboards, and see support for SuperMicro X6D series, but do not see any support for the board I am using, the X7DVL-E. I included at the bottom of this email my machine specs. My questions are: - is anyone in the process of porting code for this board? - if yes, then when do you think it will be done? - if no, then approximately how much programming effort does it typically take one of you to port coreboot to a new system, in case I decide to port it myself? - would you estimate if most of the X6D series firmware code can be reused, or would I most likely have to rewrite everything?
For a little background, I am a doctoral Computer Engineering student at Georgia Tech working on a research project to identify and breakdown the power consumption breakdown of servers. I am currently using a modified gPXE (etherboot.org) network bootloader to allow me to access to the network controller to isolate and measure its power consumption under different workloads, and I am using a modified 16kb x86-64 BareMetal OS (http://www.returninfinity.com/baremetal.html) to isolate each core's power consumption and try to break down power consumption by cpu component. Anyway, I am hoping coreboot will help me selectively turn on and off or stress different motherboard components.

Dear Coreboot Developers,
I am very impressed with coreboot and agree with the importance of open source firmware. I am looking at your list of supported server motherboards, and see support for SuperMicro X6D series, but do not see any support for the board I am using, the X7DVL-E. I included at the bottom of this email my machine specs. My questions are:
- is anyone in the process of porting code for this board?
No.
- if yes, then when do you think it will be done?
- if no, then approximately how much programming effort does it typically take one of you to port coreboot to a new system, in case I decide to port it myself?
Roughly think of 6+ man months.
- would you estimate if most of the X6D series firmware code can be reused, or would I most likely have to rewrite everything?
You will be able to reuse a lot of code, but the majority of chipset code will have to be written from scratch.
