[coreboot] Bricked 6F2

Thu Dec 29 03:22:06 CET 2011

Ok, I build coreboot's trunk and selected the target Alix2D, but managed to brick the device:

[hang]

What am I missing?  There doesn't seem to be a default VSA payload for the out-of-the-box default SeaBIOS build, which seems curious...

I burned BIOS by doing the following:

* boot the box up in linux
* scp'd the coreboot.rom file over from my build box
* flashrom -w coreboot.rom

Those were hopefully the correct steps.
