|
||

bios.bin.elf and vgaroms/vgabios.bin from SeaBIOS inside the

||
|
|
- Added seabios (and sgavgabios) to grub as payload option in menu

||
|
|
screen (no serial port needed anymore).

|
||
|
|
systems.
|
||
|
|
- Added instructions for it in builddeps, builddeps-i945pwm,
|
||
|
|
builddeb and cleandeps
|
||
|
|
- 'build' script: removed the parts that generated sha512sum
|
||
|
|
manifests (not needed, since release tarballs are GPG-signed)
|
||
|
|
- 'build' script: removed the parts that generated libreboot\_meta
|
||
|
|
directory (not needed anymore, since \_meta will be hosted in git)

|

|
|
accomodate this change.
|
||
|
|

|
||
|

|
|
gcry\_rfc2268 gcry\_rmd160 gcry\_seed gcry\_sha1 gcry\_sha512
|
||
|
|
gcry\_twofish gcry\_blowfish gcry\_cast5 gcry\_des gcry\_idea
|
||
|
|
gcry\_md5 gcry\_rijndael gcry\_rsa gcry\_serpent gcry\_sha256
|
||
|
|
gcry\_tiger gcry\_whirlpool~~
|
||
|
|
- Added GNUtoo's list of GRUB modules (includes all of the gcry\_\*
|
||
|
|
modules above), cryptomount should be working now.
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
builddeb ( updated accordingly)

||
|
|

||
|
|

||
|
|

|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
replaced them with links to \#build\_dependencies
|
||
|
|
- Documentation: emphasized more strongly on the documentation, the
|
||
|
|
need to re-build bucts and/or flashrom before flashing a ROM image.
|
||
|
|
- build-release: flashrom, nvramtool, cbfstool and bucts are no longer
|
||
|
|
provided pre-compiled in binary archives, and are now in source form
|
||
|
|
only. (to maximize distro compatibility).
|
||
|
|
- 'build' script: replaced grub.elf assembly instructons, it is now
|
||
|
|
handled by a utility added under resources/utilities/grub-assemble
|
||
|
|
- Moved resources/grub/keymap to
|
||
|
|
resources/utilities/grub-assemble/keymap, and updated that utility
|
||
|
|
to use it
|
||
|
|
- Documentation: removed useless links to pictures of keyboard layouts
|
||
|
|
and unmodified layouts.
|
||
|
|
- Removed all unused fonts from dejavu-fonts-ttf-2.34/ directory

||
|
|

|
||
|
|
for each system: one with text-mode, one with coreboot framebuffer.
|
||
|
|
- Documentation: updated \#rom to reflect the above
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
- Split up default grub.cfg into 6 parts:
|
||
|
|
extra/{common.cfg,txtmode.cfg,vesafb.cfg} and
|
||
|
|
menuentries/{common.cfg,txtmode.cfg,vesafb.cfg}
|
||
|
|
- buildrom-withgrub script uses these to generate the correct
|
||
|
|
grub.cfg for each type of configuration.
|
||
|
|
- grub\_memdisk.cfg (used inside grub.elf) now only loads grub.cfg
|
||
|
|
from cbfs. It no longer enables serial output or sets prefix.
|
||
|
|
(menuentries/common.cfg does instead)
|
||
|
|
- resources/grub/config/extra/common.cfg, added:
|
||
|
|
- insmod instructions to load those modules: nativedisk, ehci,
|
||
|
|
ohci, uhci, usb, usbserial\_pl2303, usbserial\_ftdi,
|
||
|
|
usbserial\_usbdebug
|
||
|
|
- set prefix=(memdisk)/boot/grub
|
||
|
|
- For native graphics (recommended by coreboot wiki):\
|
||
|
|
gfxpayload=keep\
|
||
|
|
terminal\_output \--append gfxterm
|
||
|
|
- Play a beep on startup:\
|
||
|
|
play 480 440 1
|
||
|
|
- Documentation: updated gnulinux/grub\_cbfs.html to make it safer
|
||
|
|
(and easier) to follow.
