Hello! During the ramp up that brought us to the coreboot project, one Steven James contributed a project he called Baremetal, and described it as a bootloader of sorts. During that time period I actually did get it to build, but sadly never did get around to test it.
Was this project imported along with everything else to the coreboot storage point that we access using subversion? (As it happens I have now gotten one of the currently available loaders to work using Qemu.)

IIRC, baremetal was/is a simple "Hello World"-esque payload that was intended as something to base future payloads on. I'm pretty sure it's in the linuxbios-v1 repository.

Greetings,
I'm still lurking about, just very quiet lately.
I think the best part of it that would still be relevant got absorbed into FILO for USB support.
Since the library itself pulled in includes from the main tree, it's unlikely to even compile anymore without a fair bit of work.
G'day, sjames

In a sense baremetal was a first cut at what we have now in libpayload.
