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!

This page describes how to use coreboot on the Kontron 986LCD-M/mITX mainboard. It is maintained by Uwe Hermann.

Flashrom OK=lime | TODO=red | No=red | WIP=orange | Untested=yellow | N/A=lightgray | yellow }}" | OK Works fine, but you have to use -m kontron:986lcd-m when booted with the vendor BIOS (not needed when booted with coreboot).

Build tutorial

$ svn co svn://coreboot.org/repos/trunk/coreboot-v2
$ cd coreboot-v2/targets
$ ./buildtarget kontron/986lcd-m
$ cd kontron/986lcd-m/kontron_986lcd_m

Now copy your payload into the current directory and name it payload.elf. Then:

$ make -s

The resulting coreboot.rom is your coreboot ROM image you can flash using flashrom.

Notes

  • If you use FILO, SATA will probably be hda and hdb, while hdc is the master drive of the IDE controller.
  • Currently you have to use acpi=off on the kernel command line to make IDE work.
  • If you experience kernel crashes try to blacklist the agpgart and intel_agp kernel modules.
