[coreboot] coreboot Digest, Vol 147, Issue 19

[Keith Hui]

Hi (again) coreboot:

I read the below from the digest.

Having brought the P2B-LS into coreboot along with RAM init to 440BX
northbridge and cache init to Slot 1 CPUs back in 2010, I am
interested in bringing this platform up to standard. Where can I read
up on this cbmem in romstage standard?

However, of the family I only have P2B-LS and P3B-F on hand to boot test.

I just checked out the master from git in case they are part of the readings.

Thanks
Keith
