Thank you for the information. I don't have RISC-V hardware available right now. As you told QEMU won't work , it seems I may not able to do any development[ right ?]. BTW I have Beagle Bone Black I can port coreboot on that one if it's not available. I was lurking on IRC and came to know that there are few patches on Beagle bone available. I have checked it out beagle bone has support for coreboot but not sure about beagle bone black. I will try it on BBB and let you know about that :) Thanks, Punit Vara -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org https://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
