Hi Nico,

Thanks for your comments.
Do you know how to check USB2.0/USB3.0 in Grub2? I am trying to prove it. But another question is then why EHCI driver cannot work when running with Coreboot on Denverton-NS platform? Is that due to only xHCI controller in Denverton-NS?

Regards,
-Hilbert

I still believe that GRUB doesn't have an xHCI driver. Broadwell-DE has
an EHCI controller (alongside the xHCI one) and Rangeley only had EHCI.
So you probably always used GRUB with its EHCI driver before.
