OpenCellular project provides very decent Coreboot instructions. In particular, 
they suggest that you flash just the coreboot section of ROM as per 
https://github.com/Telecominfraproject/OpenCellular/wiki/How-to-coreboot#updates

=====================
Updates can simply applied by using the coreboot flashrom tool and applying 
this patch.

Update FW partition A
flashrom --fmap -i RW_SECTION_A -w coreboot.rom
Update FW partition B
flashrom --fmap -i RW_SECTION_B -w coreboot.rom
=====================

If you do this, you won't need the descriptor as you are not overwriting the 
entire ROM

Subject: [coreboot] Building Coreboot Image for Opencellular

Hello,

I'm Karthik working on Opencellular 
(https://code.fb.com/connectivity/introducing-opencellular-an-open-source-wireless-access-platform/).
 I'm trying to build coreboot image for Opencellular Board. Finally, succeeded 
in building the image but with a WARNING message

** WARNING **
coreboot will be built without an Intel Firmware Descriptor.
Never write a complete coreboot.rom without an IFD to your
board's flash chip! You can use flashrom's IFD or layout
parameters to flash only to the BIOS region.

So my question is
1. Is it okay to flash the image with above WARNING message onto the board?

Help me to find a way.

Thank you, in advance.
