[coreboot] GSoC-2014 Coreboot project

Hi, I am Jinyi Yan , a second year PhD candidate from Shanghai Institute of Micro-system and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. I used to be a mainboard BIOS engineer in ASUS Technology Suzhou Co., Ltd for about two years (2007.7~2009.2). My major now is optoelectronics. But I

Re: [coreboot] GSoC-2014 Coreboot project

well, vladimir, I would not be so discouraging. In fact if it is an existing mainboard, and you have not done coreboot before, I suggest doing a port, and then doing something new with the port. I'd like somebody to look at doing LinuxBIOS again, i.e. getting us back to the point where we can

[coreboot] GSoC 2014 project Debug environment

Hi! GSoC 2013 was nice so I decided to apply again and hopefully continue on the same topic around debugging environment. Enhance early coreboot debugging Short description: The traditional way for coreboot developer to make a port for new mainboard is to add more messages on debug

Re: [coreboot] GSoC-2014 Coreboot project

Hi Jinyi, Can you provide more details about your work as a BIOS engineer? As Vladimir said, if the chipset is unsupported then writing MRC for it will be a very long and difficult process. If the chipset is supported then adding mainboard support may be a relatively simple task that not
