Hi Masoud,<br>
<br>
The coreboot table parser in older FILOs does not support the
"FORWARD" tag<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/coreboot/browser/trunk/payloads/libpayload/arch/i386/coreboot.c#L140">http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/coreboot/browser/trunk/payloads/libpayload/arch/i386/coreboot.c#L140</a><br>
<br>
I'd suggest that you use newer versions of FILO. However,
implementing support for that tag in older versions should be rather
straight forward, so you can give that a try, too..<br>
