I have experimentet with coreboot on my CompuLab Intense PC (Ivy Bridge) for
some time, and I think everything is working now, with Intel ME disabled.
Although, I have some troubles with boot selection.
I'm currently running coreboot [4cea00a64] with default SeaBIOS payload and a
bootorder file. The boot device search order is this:
1. USB 2.0 device
2. USB 3.0 device
3. SATA devices (in order: 2.5″ internal, mSATA, eSATA, FACE module)
During testing I have been running the system from a USB 3.0 flash disk. This
worked as expected and system would automatically select this device during
boot/reboot.
I then wanted to use the internal 2.5" SATA disk, so I installed an OS and
confirmed it working by manually selecting the SATA disk in boot menu. I then
removed boot sector from flash disk, reboot and expected that the system would
now automatically boot from internal SATA disk, but this happened instead:
===
Booting from Hard Disk... Boot failed: not a bootable disk
Booting from Floppy... Boot failed: not a bootable disk
No bootable device. Retrying in 60 seconds.
===
Not sure what is going on with "Floppy". No such thing exists on the system.
If I remove flash disk from USB port before power on, the system will boot
correctly from internal SATA disk. Is this correct behaviour?
I would expect that it should not matter that flash disk is inserted in USB
port, as long as no boot sector is present on the device. If this is NOT
correct behaviour, then what could be the problem here?
Thanks in advance.

Mogens Jensen
