Dear Rajashaker

welcome to coreboot!

if you select this option, build a coreboot based image and boot to
GNU/Linux, you can read the time stamps with `sudo cbmem -t`.

$ cd util/cbmem
        $ make
        $ sudo ./cbmem -t

What board do you use? Note, AMD AGESA boards currently do *not* support
storing romstage time stamps, so they cannot be read out and are lost
during the boot.

Also remember that the payloads, at least GRUB 2, SeaBIOS and FILO, do
not write store time stamps in CBMEM.

There is also timing information, which coreboot only puts in its
console log (`sudo ./cbmem -c`).

Search for *BS:* and *usec* for example.

Please report back, if that helped you.

Thanks,

Paul

it’s one word.
