commit f92871b7ea66f9bbce81bbc08734cae2adbf0969 Author: Patrick Georgi patrick@georgi-clan.de Date: Sat Jan 7 19:15:43 2012 +0100
Another indirection for normal/fallback bootblock
Provide a way to redefine the names of normal and fallback via CBFS. This way updates can use some more expressive naming scheme (numbers, dates, version numbers) and replace the coreboot-stages file to point to the new version (with the current version as new "old").
If coreboot-stages doesn't exist, the default behaviour remains to use "normal" and "fallback".
