This page describes how to use coreboot on the Mitac 6513WU board.
A sample boot log of the board running coreboot is available.

Building coreboot
$ svn co svn://coreboot.org/coreboot/trunk coreboot $ cd coreboot/targets $ ./buildtarget mitac/6513wu $ cd mitac/6513wu/6513wu
Now copy your desired payload into the current directory and name it payload.elf. Then:
$ make
Finally, prepend the VGA BIOS image (32 KB) to get your final coreboot image:
$ cat vga.bin coreboot.rom > coreboot_final.rom
(replace vga.bin with the file name of your VGA BIOS image)
You can now flash the resulting coreboot_final.rom on a ROM chip using Flashrom.
