Hrrm.  Nothing looks immediately wrong.  Are you running this under
qemu?  If so, one can attach gdb to qemu and set breakpoints in the

BTW, in previous emails I highlighted some disadvantages with a
tighter integration of seabios and coreboot.  Could you elaborate on
the reasons why you think this is the best option?
