Hi. Coreboot is a project to reimplement firmware of computer, it is not a software running atop any operating system.
Coreboot is at https://www.coreboot.org/, which has not been included within debian. And I have never been working on virtualbox. Now I am only a Coreboot user and potential developer. I just want to point out the possibility about that.
