[coreboot] Failed to launch windows 7 and two more questions ...

[Boris Shpoungin]

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for your response.

What is the Wiki you mentioned in your mail?
So far, I've found only three pieces of information on coreboot web site:

http://www.coreboot.org/Documentation
http://qa.coreboot.org/docs/doxygen/
http://www.coreboot.org/Developer_Manual

Did I miss anything?

Boris
