QEMU

- -

- You don't really do anything here, just run (example):
- $ qemu-system-i386 -M pc -m 512 -bios bin/qemu_i440fx_piix4/qemu_i440fx_piix4_ukdvorak_vesafb.rom -serial stdio
- $ qemu-system-i386 -M q35 -m 512 -bios bin/qemu_q35_ich9/qemu_q35_ich9_ukdvorak_vesafb.rom -serial stdio -

List of ROM images in libreboot

- List of directories corresponding to each board: + Use the list of archives below to know which archive is correct + for your device:

- -

These images use coreboot text-mode graphics:

- -

These images use coreboot framebuffer graphics:

-

- The boards for boardname in the examples above can be found by the names of the directories - in ./bin/ or ./resources/libreboot/config/. + The ROM images in each archive use the following naming convention: boardname_keymap_mode.rom

-

- _txtmode images come with MemTest86+. - _vesafb images are recommended in most cases. + Available modes: vesafb or txtmode. The vesafb ROM images are recommended, in most cases; + txtmode ROM images come with MemTest86+, which requires text-mode instead of the usual framebuffer used + by coreboot native graphics initialization.

-

- This will give you your native keyboard layout inside GRUB. The preferences in your OS are not affected, it just makes using - the GRUB command line easier (if you ever need to do that). - ../grub/index.html#grub_keyboard shows you how this was done. If your native keyboard layout - differs, you can adapt those notes and hack the 'build' script for your needs. + Keymaps are named appropriate according to each keyboard layout + support in GRUB. To learn how these keymaps are created, see + ../grub/index.html#grub_keyboard

+ +

QEMU

+ +

+ Coreboot supports QEMU. QEMU is useful for testing purposes. Libreboot + comes with ROM images built for QEMU, by default. +

+

+ The following ROM image archives are available in libreboot: +

+ +

+ Examples of how to use libreboot in QEMU: +

+ +

+ You can optionally specify the -serial stdio argument, so that QEMU will emulate + a serial terminal on the standard input/output (most likely your terminal emulator or TTY). +

+

+ Other arguments are available for QEMU. The manual will contain more information. +
