./cbfs/cbfstool ./coreboot.rom create 262144 131072 ./coreboot.rom.bootblock
./cbfs/cbfstool ./coreboot.rom add-stage normal/coreboot_ram
normal/coreboot_ram
...
./coreboot.rom: 256 kB, bootblocksize 131072, romsize 262144, offset 0x0
Alignment: 64 bytes

Name                           Offset     Type         Size
normal/coreboot_ram            0x0        stage        31764
fallback/coreboot_ram          0x7c80     stage        31765
                               0xf900     null         67256

The bootblock is 128K because normal/coreboot.rom and fallback/coreboot.rom
are each 64K. It seems larger than necessary, but it shouldn't matter
becuase there's still almost 64K left.

Thanks,
Myles
