Dear Roger, Thank you for your useful reply. How did you get the Intel "rc" code? Our Intel representative hasn't heard of it! We have an NDA with Intel. > it's possible. i've worked on haswell cpu e3 series and c226 and booted win7 > and linux OS. > you should get rc code from intel under NDA

as a first pass, did you burn coreboot for the wrong board just to see if you got anything al all on serial? I just went through this process on a different board and that was my starting point, as it is for many. ron -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org http://www.coreboot.org/mailman

it's possible. i've worked on haswell cpu e3 series and c226 and booted win7 and linux OS. you should get rc code from intel under NDA first,then make mrc.bin,port some pch rc code(sata,pcie,usb,etc). then it could boot. i use the basking ridge CRB code. and i got some help from aaron on this po

Dear coreboot, We have done some more research on the differences between the supported Haswell processors and PCH parts and what we have used in our design. We have designed a board with the E3-1268Lv3 device with the 82C226 PCH part. It appears that all Haswell devices that have been ported ar

My advice if you're working with those chromebooks is to start with the chromeos tree, not the upstream. ron On Wed, Jul 2, 2014 at 10:24 AM, Matt DeVillier wrote: > While a couple of the Haswell-based ChromeBooks have been added to > upstream coreboot, but have not heard of anyone with them

While a couple of the Haswell-based ChromeBooks have been added to upstream coreboot, but have not heard of anyone with them actually running yet. I know John Lewis had tried to get the HP ChromeBook 14 (falco) going but was not successful (though he does have the Chromium/falco branch working)

Hello! What he said. Ron you are very right here. The rules were one to use, and one to ,ah, hack. Now I freely admit all I know about bringing Coreboot to the Chromebooks is what is discussed here. But I did indeed study and follow the earlier efforts, and doing these ports can be considered use

As always, when doing a new board, get a system that is known to work with coreboot and has your chipset in it. You should get several (never just one!) of the haswell chromebooks, build coreboot, make sure you can make it all work, then try the port to your board. ron On Wed, Jul 2, 2014 at 12:

Dear coreboot, We are interested in coreboot for the Intel Haswell processors. coreboot appears to be used in the Acer C720 and HP Chromebooks that use Haswell processors. I see no reference to this processor, or to these products in the source code that I downloaded recently. There is also no re
