Chromebook Samus
|
|
================
|
|
|
|
First, you need the following binary blobs:
|
|
|
|
* descriptor.bin - Intel flash descriptor
|
|
* me.bin - Intel Management Engine
|
|
* mrc.bin - Memory Reference Code, which sets up SDRAM
|
|
* refcode.elf - Additional Reference code
|
|
* vga.bin - video ROM, which sets up the display
|
|
|
|
If you have a samus you can obtain them from your flash, for example, in
|
|
developer mode on the Chromebook (use Ctrl-Alt-F2 to obtain a terminal and
|
|
log in as 'root')::
|
|
|
|
cd /tmp
|
|
flashrom -w samus.bin
|
|
scp samus.bin username@ip_address:/path/to/somewhere
|
|
|
|
If not see the coreboot tree where you can use::
|
|
|
|
bash crosfirmware.sh samus
|
|
|
|
to get the image. There is also an 'extract_blobs.sh' scripts that you can use
|
|
on the 'coreboot-Google_Samus.*' file to short-circuit some of the below.
|
|
|
|
Then 'ifdtool -x samus.bin' on your development machine will produce::
|
|
|
|
flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin
|
|
flashregion_1_bios.bin
|
|
flashregion_2_intel_me.bin
|
|
|
|
Rename flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin to descriptor.bin
|
|
Rename flashregion_2_intel_me.bin to me.bin
|
|
You can ignore flashregion_1_bios.bin - it is not used.
|
|
|
|
To get the rest, use 'cbfstool samus.bin print'::
|
|
|
|
samus.bin: 8192 kB, bootblocksize 2864, romsize 8388608, offset 0x700000

You can extract what you need::
|
|
|
|
cbfstool samus.bin extract -n pci8086,0406.rom -f vga.bin
|
|
cbfstool samus.bin extract -n fallback/refcode -f refcode.rmod
|
|
cbfstool samus.bin extract -n mrc.bin -f mrc.bin
|
|
cbfstool samus.bin extract -n fallback/refcode -f refcode.bin -U
|
|
|
|
Note that the -U flag is only supported by the latest cbfstool. It unpacks
|
|
and decompresses the stage to produce a coreboot rmodule. This is a simple
|
|
representation of an ELF file. You need the patch "Support decoding a stage
|
|
with compression".
|
|
|
|
Put all 5 files into board/google/chromebook_samus.
|
|
|
|
Now you can build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.rom::
|
|
|
|
$ make chromebook_samus_defconfig
|
|
$ make all
|
|
|
|
If you are using em100, then this command will flash write -Boot::
|
|
|
|
em100 -s -d filename.rom -c W25Q64CV -r
|
|
|
