Hi All,
I made two changes in the Config.lb file first one is ROM_SIZE i made as 2048*1024 and second i specified the location of my payload.
yea I also think i misconfigured the Config.lb file. I modified the ROM_SIZE but forgot to change the ROM_IMAGE_SIZE in the Config.lb file according to it.
The modified version of this file i've attached. and then again tried to rebuild the coreboot but this time after executing the make command i got the error message as:
/usr/bin/ld: _start too low. Please decrease ROM_IMAGE_SIZE
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [coreboot] Error 1
So i think the problm is with my paylod linux.elf. Its description is as follows
Actually i am going to build qemu without using FILO, for that i took the vmlinuz and initrd image from my system(development machine) whose size is 2.1 MB and 7.8 MB respectively when i used the mkelfImage utilty to generate the elf image using the command:
mkelfImage --append="console=ttyS0" --initrd=/boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic linux.elf
the size of the linux.elf image was 10 MB. So this may be problem also.
So I dont know how to decrease the size of linux.elf, Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Anurag Vashisth

Doesn't that depend on the console driver?

No. After a few seconds of booting you can hold it in reset as long as you
want. Since there is no output (no post codes either), I haven't been able
to narrow it down.
What I'm hoping is that it is some setting that can be saved by the device
for the next boot. Otherwise I have to figure out a workaround, since I
can't access the SuperIO before HT is initialized, and I need to hold the
board in reset before HT is initialized.

Since #1 is no, I don't think so.

How big is your payload. It looks like it is too big to fit in the space
that's left.

any reason for that size?
I have had this problem but I think only when I somehow misconfigured
the ROM sizes. What parts of coreboot have you changed?

If you check out the latest coreboot version the error message is more
understandable. I'd recommend always trying svn head if you can't get an
older version to work.

This has probably been discussed before but what are the pros and cons of

Sorry I didn't know it was a sensitive subject. I'm going to release some
code soon, and I was just wondering which one to use.

If you have the time, I'd suggest that the best thing to do is to
carefully read the two, compare them, and then choose one yourself:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.html
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-3.0.html
If you'd like to hear from the architect of the licenses, RMS wrote a
letter encouraging projects to upgrade from v2 -> v3. You might find
it relevant: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/rms-why-gplv3.html
If you have special licensing needs or specific license questions,
remember that you can always drop a line to the friendly SFLC folks.
Their lawyers are very helpful at answering legal inquiries about Free
Software licensing and other related questions:

Good luck!
