[coreboot] What is the way to add a VGA ROM space intarget\xx\xx\Config.lb

I have tried the CONFIG_ROM_SIZE, but it doesn't work. I worked in
serengeti_cheetah_fam10. I put "-60416" after CONFIG_ROM_SIZE=1024*1024.
But the building fails. Please see the build.log I attached.

Thanks.

Zheng

Hi Zheng,

Look at the example in pcengines/alix.1c:

## CONFIG_ROM_SIZE is the total number of bytes allocated for coreboot
use
## (normal AND fallback images and payloads). Leave 36k for VSA.
option CONFIG_ROM_SIZE = (512 * 1024) - (36 * 1024)

So, CONFIG_ROM_SIZE is the place to do that.

Thanks,
Ward.
