[coreboot] Test hardware initialization in emulator

I am exploring Coreboot. I had bought a Minnowboard, which will take some time to arrive. Meanwhile I wanted to carry out the learning on an emulator. I had compiled a ROM for QEMU and it ran successfully. I even tried with different payloads (which I hear is the easy part of the boot process) Now

Re: [coreboot] coreboot image signature

Zoran, I'm a bit confused as to where you are coming from with this - you can search for ASCII/hex strings using something as light as hexedit. No need to install a more full-blown hex editor especially. I'm not a fan of using sledgehammers to crack nuts. John. On 24/08/16 09:54, Zoran

Hello John, Thank you for guiding me. I used last 5 years (while being with INTEL) mainly HxD (for WIN). Did not used very long hex editors for Linux. Here it is (your suggestion): ___ [zoran@localhost tools]$ dnf whatprovides hexedit hexedit-1.2.13-8.fc24.x86_64 : A hexadecimal file viewer
