I don't think one should exclude the other, I think it would make great sense to combine them. So have coreboot on QEMU read some hardware description from QEMU and use that either as input to a table generator, or even have the read data be the tables themselves. It might or might not be easier and/or make more sense to generate tables in coreboot rather than in QEMU - that's unclear so far. > From the quick look it seems they do *not* generate the dsdt > dynamically, only the other tables (simliar to seabios).

Is there something inherent to the AML generator code in coreboot which makes it suck for the purpose of also generating a DSDT? //Peter _______________________________________________ SeaBIOS mailing list SeaBIOS@seabios.org http://www.seabios.org/mailman/listinfo/seabios
