8 seconds is a rather long time for a system like this - also it's unlikely that they did a Coreboot port to their platform without contributing anything back (Coreboot is GPL after all, and Google usually complies with licenses). As it is Intel based, it's fair to assume that they use EFI. -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
