Hi,
It appears that since r4534 (move to Kconfig), Multiboot information is no
longer built in by default. You have to enable it in "System tables" /
"Generate Multiboot tables (for GRUB2)", then GRUB works fine (at least
on QEMU, which I just tested).
Coreboot developers: would you consider enabling it again? The overhead
is minimal, and it would make this less confusing for users.

still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."
