Re: [coreboot] USB to Serial Converters
Hi Zahra, Yes, I used the 6-pin serial port header. Also, make sure the microcode header(s) you include correspond to the CPUID of your processor. The E3825 and E3826 use different microcode headers, so M0130679901.h will not work for you. Please keep the coreboot mailing list CC'd. I haven't done anything with Minnowboard in several months and others may be able to help.

The last config that I tested is https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/board-status.git/plain/intel/minnowmax/4.6-1358-g49d117c69f/2017-09-06T06_53_39Z/config.txt If you diff my config and yours, it seems you have several options disabled which I think you should try enabling: CONFIG_HAVE_IFD_BIN CONFIG_HAVE_ME_BIN CONFIG_TTYS0_LCS CONFIG_DRIVERS_UART_8250IO CONFIG_IFD_BIN_PATH CONFIG_ME_BIN_PATH CONFIG_LOCK_MANAGEMENT_ENGINE CONFIG_DRIVERS_UART CONFIG_CONSOLE_SERIAL CONFIG_CONSOLE_SERIAL_115200 You can find these by using the search function in `make menuconfig`. Press '/' and type a Kconfig option. > I would be grateful if you check my config and tell me what is ifdtool > in Coreboot and how > I use it. > and How I find Intel ME file for my board and GBE for a network on my > board. ifdtool is a tool for viewing and manipulating an Intel Flash Descriptor binary. The flash descriptor is a 4KB data structure at the start of the ROM's address space (offset 0x00-0x000fff). To build it: `make -C util/ifdtool` To run it: `util/ifdtool/ifdtool` You'll probably want to use the '-x' option to extract the individual modules from an existing Minnowboard Max firmware image (e.g. the UEFI image that comes with the board). That will give you the ME and GBE files. >> -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org https://mail.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot

Re: [coreboot] USB to Serial Converters
Thank you very much. I compiled coreboot and seabios and got Microcode and Fsp on it. But I did not have output on serial port. Could you tell me How set menuconfig that see outpot on serial port.

The Minnowboard Max serial port does not go thru a USB to serial converter. However, you may need to enable some config options. Compare a sample config.txt from the supported mainboards page (https://coreboot.org/status/board-status.html) to your .config file to see if there is anything obviously missing. Also, do you have the microcode files from Intel? If not, you can download them from https://downloadmirror.intel.com/25063/eng/Baytrail_FSP_Gold4.tgz. > > Thanks , > > > -- > coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org > https://mail.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org https://mail.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
