[coreboot] Success in replicating a fast boot time to the browser on a x60

Hello Among the things that first impressed me with coreboot was the boot time demonstrated in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKdLhbmjrDI If anyone is interested, I could successfully replicate a similar boot time on a debian wheezy, with a modern coreboot chain loading to grub2, on a x60

This is great. We've gotten an acer c720 down to 1.7 seconds from power button to chromeos login screen. I've always wanted to get it done in under a second. I hope you can get there! ron -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot

[coreboot] question about tp_smapi modules and phc-intel

Hello I'm currently trying to make the tp_smapi modules work thinkpad_ec and hdaps were easy to patch (basically adding a special case and HDAPS_DMI_MATCH_INVERT_CUSTOM to match only on DMI_PRODUCT_VERSION since DMI_BOARD_VENDOR was not set at all with the coreboot I was using) However,

As always, when doing a new board, get a system that is known to work with coreboot and has your chipset in it. You should get several (never just one!) of the haswell chromebooks, build coreboot, make sure you can make it all work, then try the port to your board. ron On Wed, Jul 2, 2014 at

Re: [coreboot] F2A85-M: Chassis Fan Not Working

2014-07-02 Thread ron minnich
Double check: the chassis fan turns off. Sometimes, that's correct behavior until things get warm, and the fan should turn on. So you're sure the turning off is the wrong thing to do? In some cases it's desirable for a chassis fan to spin up, then turn off, then turn on again as needed, all under

Hello! What he said. Ron you are very right here. The rules were one to use, and one to ,ah, hack. Now I freely admit all I know about bringing Coreboot to the Chromebooks is what is discussed here. But I did indeed study and follow the earlier efforts, and doing these ports can be considered

While a couple of the Haswell-based ChromeBooks have been added to upstream coreboot, but have not heard of anyone with them actually running yet. I know John Lewis had tried to get the HP ChromeBook 14 (falco) going but was not successful (though he does have the Chromium/falco branch

Dear coreboot, We have done some more research on the differences between the supported Haswell processors and PCH parts and what we have used in our design. We have designed a board with the E3-1268Lv3 device with the 82C226 PCH part. It appears that all Haswell devices that have been ported
