The wiki is being retired!

Documentation is now handled by the same processes we use for code: Add something to the Documentation/ directory in the coreboot repo, and it will be rendered to https://doc.coreboot.org/. Contributions welcome!

OpenBIOS is an IEEE 1275-1994 compliant firmware which can also be used as a coreboot payload.

Building

$ svn co svn://openbios.org/openbios/openbios-devel
$ cd openbios-devel
$ config/scripts/switch-arch x86
$ make

The file obj-x86/openbios-builtin.elf is your final OpenBIOS payload to be used with coreboot. Alternatively, you can use obj-x86/openbios-plain.elf, which does not contain a built-in dictionary and is thus a lot smaller.
