- Make sure you have the external tools in place to recover from a bad flash. You will not boot successfully on the first attempt. - Keep a copy of the original firmware around - Try to make sure that your USB debug gadget is working before starting - Start with one of the existing i945 based notebooks - find out what EC is used, and if it shares flash with the main system - try to get hold of schematics Regards, Stefan -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
