<aggi>so, got a "new" mainboard tested for coreboot which wasn't officially - at least this seems stable <aggi>if however coreboot/seabios ever were considered with some "firmware" bootstrap this problem remains blocked indefinitely (for entire x86 realm) <aggi>the dependency graph is gigantic, and i did not yet succeed to do it on the tinycc/linux-2.4 system at least to minimize the dependency graph <aggi>tcc errors with 16bit asm - as expected, some tcc-compiled flashrom.static errors on libusb-init <aggi>those problems can be addressed, but a gigantic circular dependency graph remains even when that shrinked a little in comparison to gcc/binutils <aggi>furthermore i noticed, coreboot/seabios themselves are rather huge (for what they are), AGESA+seabios compilation takes a little while <aggi>it's just too much to be considered as a fully bootstrappable firmware option <aggi>another side-note: funnily i even managed to boot a full win7 x86_64 although coreboot mentions that wasn't feasible due to incomplete ACPI implementation <aggi>as much as i dislike it, nonetheless it tested ok
