Maybe the ARM chromebooks use UEFI, I don't remember. Anyway, some ARM boards start to take PCI peripherals, and then you have to enumerate, allocate resources, initialise, run option ROMs (hopefully optional or free, but often not)... Coreboot already had this kind of stuff done. I don't know if with u-boot you could attach a sata controller to the PCI port of an ARM board and boot from a sata disk attached to that controller. Things like this, I think. But I don't really remember well. _______________________________________________ arm-netbook mailing list [email protected] http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to [email protected]
