Hi, Im trying to install coreboot on ga-b75m-d3h. I always get a black screen (no beeping). I have included vgabios.bin, tried VGA text mod , libgfxinit... Still no screen output. I have installed coreboot on thinkpads before. Not suere what the problem here is.
I have tried flashing internally and externally.
This is my config file: https://pastebin.com/paeAERzt

What version of coreboot are you using. There was a regression in the master branch yesterday(?), fixed by commit 7d925c5fb8 (cpu/x86/mp_init.c: Fix HAVE_SMI_HANDLER) [1].
Kind regards,

Hi Paul, sorry for the pastebin.
I was using got version yesterday. But today I have tested with 4.15 and same problem. I can test with an early version even do a git bisect if needed.

Please always give the git commit hash, so it’s unambiguous.

Do you have a revision that worked in the past?
Did you try logging in over network? Maybe your OS started, but only graphics is not working? (Though the Linux kernel should be able to initialize Intel integrated graphic devices by itself.
Here your configuration:
CONFIG_VENDOR_GIGABYTE=y CONFIG_VGA_BIOS_ID="8086,0102" CONFIG_CBFS_SIZE=0x250000 CONFIG_VGA_BIOS=y CONFIG_BOARD_GIGABYTE_GA_B75M_D3H=y CONFIG_CONSOLE_CBMEM_BUFFER_SIZE=0x20000 CONFIG_HAVE_IFD_BIN=y CONFIG_PCIEXP_HOTPLUG_BUSES=8 CONFIG_PCIEXP_HOTPLUG_MEM=0x800000 CONFIG_PCIEXP_HOTPLUG_PREFETCH_MEM=0x10000000 CONFIG_UART_PCI_ADDR=0x0 CONFIG_HAVE_ME_BIN=y CONFIG_USE_ME_CLEANER=y
Please try first to use the original vendor firmware image, and only flash the BIOS region.
CONFIG_VGA_ROM_RUN=y CONFIG_PCIEXP_HOTPLUG_IO=0x2000 CONFIG_SUBSYSTEM_VENDOR_ID=0x0000 CONFIG_SUBSYSTEM_DEVICE_ID=0x0000 CONFIG_POST_IO_PORT=0x80 CONFIG_SEABIOS_DEBUG_LEVEL=-1 CONFIG_COREINFO_SECONDARY_PAYLOAD=y CONFIG_MEMTEST_SECONDARY_PAYLOAD=y CONFIG_NVRAMCUI_SECONDARY_PAYLOAD=y
Lastly, if you cannot get the log over serial console, please build with *CONSOLE_SPI_FLASH* (`CONSOLE_SPI_FLASH`), then read out the image, and extract the logs as described in the Kconfig description/help text:
cbfstool rom.bin read -r CONSOLE -f console.log
Kind regards,
Paul

I don't. This is the first time flashing this board

I want to install new OS so I can't test that easily. But I will try.
Here your configuration:
CONFIG_VENDOR_GIGABYTE=y CONFIG_VGA_BIOS_ID="8086,0102" CONFIG_CBFS_SIZE=0x250000 CONFIG_VGA_BIOS=y CONFIG_BOARD_GIGABYTE_GA_B75M_D3H=y CONFIG_CONSOLE_CBMEM_BUFFER_SIZE=0x20000 CONFIG_HAVE_IFD_BIN=y CONFIG_PCIEXP_HOTPLUG_BUSES=8 CONFIG_PCIEXP_HOTPLUG_MEM=0x800000 CONFIG_PCIEXP_HOTPLUG_PREFETCH_MEM=0x10000000 CONFIG_UART_PCI_ADDR=0x0 CONFIG_HAVE_ME_BIN=y CONFIG_USE_ME_CLEANER=y

I have to use jus this for configuration, or add this to my own config?
How can I know what's the BIOS region on this board?
Lastly, if you cannot get the log over serial console, please build with *CONSOLE_SPI_FLASH* (`CONSOLE_SPI_FLASH`), then read out the image, and extract the logs as described in the Kconfig description/help text:
cbfstool rom.bin read -r CONSOLE -f console.log
I will.
Thank you Paul
