coreboot lesson 1 - Starting from scratch
{{#externalredirect: https://doc.coreboot.org/tutorial/part1.html}}
 
From a fresh [http://releases.ubuntu.com/15.10/ubuntu-15.10-desktop-amd64.iso ubuntu 15.10 linux] install, here are all the steps required:
 
==Download, configure, and build coreboot==
 
Install tools and libraries needed for coreboot
$ sudo apt-get install git-core libncurses5-dev m4 bison flex
 
Download coreboot source tree:
$ git clone http://review.coreboot.org/coreboot
$ cd coreboot
 
build toolchain (This can take a significant amount of time)
$ make crossgcc-i386 CPUS=$(nproc)
 
Build the payload - coreinfo
$ pushd payloads/coreinfo
$ make olddefconfig
$ make
$ popd
 
configure mainboard to build coreboot
$ make menuconfig
    select 'Mainboard' menu
    select 'Mainboard model'
    choose 'QEMU x86 i440fx/piix4'
    select exit
   
    select 'Payload' menu
    select 'Add a Payload'
    choose 'An Elf executable payload'
    select 'Payload path and filename'
    enter 'payloads/coreinfo/build/coreinfo.elf'
    select exit
    select exit
    select yes
 
check your configuration:
$ make savedefconfig
$ cat defconfig
There should only be three lines:
CONFIG_BOARD_EMULATION_QEMU_X86_I440FX=y
CONFIG_PAYLOAD_ELF=y
CONFIG_PAYLOAD_FILE="payloads/coreinfo/build/coreinfo.elf"
 
build coreboot:
$ make
 
== Test the image using QEMU ==
 
Install QEMU
$ sudo apt-get install qemu
 
Start QEMU:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -bios build/coreboot.rom -serial stdio
 
You should see the serial output of coreboot in the original console window, and a new window will appear running the coreinfo payload.
