<p class="MsoNormal"><a name="_MailEndCompose"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">You have a lot of questions here. First off let met mention I am not an expert on Coreboot or SeaBIOS. I knew there was an Open Source
Legacy BIOS in existence, and was able to find a page discussing projects in Tianocore.org that mentioned SeaBOS. It also noted that the integration project around SeaBIOS was deprioritized. <o:p></o:p></span></a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">In you messages, you mentioned QEMU, from this link (</span><a href="https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Platforms"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/EDK-II-Platforms</span></a><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">)
QEMU is machine simulator, so you may be crossing platform boundaries between real hardware and simulated hardware by pursuing OVFM or QEMU in regards to the current situation. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Also, I know very little about CoreBoot, and am not comfortable attempting to respond to questions on this subject.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">My experience is wholly with the UEFI firmware versions, particularly the variant shipped with the product (64 bit production as opposed to 32 bit and/or debug
options). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">That said, the notice about SeaBIOS basically indicates the following: SeaBIOS source code is predominately in the C programming language, as opposed to assembly
(which was the original Legacy BIOS’s source language). The build environment or SeaBIOS was a standard GNU C toolchain (as opposed to other C compilers in the market). The Legacy BIOS image created from the SeaBIOS sources was tested with the following
boot loaders: GNU, GRUB, LILO and SYSLINUX. The following Operating systems were tested with SeaBIOS: Microsoft Windows (versions using Legacy BIOS), Linux, FreeDOS, FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">You can put Coreboot on your MinnowBoard MAX/Turbot, but the specifics on doing so are not in my area of experience or expertise, so I am going to defer those
kinds of questions to other members of this community, who have experience and can respond with confidence.

about this over the years, so rather than attempt to repeat them, I will leave you to look them up or the community to provide links to the most “helpful” of those still in archive.

is doubtful that one will not be in a non-booting situation again and will be required to use a hardware device (software options not being available) to get a known working firmware image into the SPI (as well as pushing non-tested experimental firmware images
onto the platform)… Basically, this takes one into the realm of doing firmware development, and a hardware programmer is a standard tool for firmware developers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

exposed a mechanism to re-flash the SPI, but I do not know if they are still commercially available or not (maybe the community could help here?). I know that Dediprog devices (like the SF100) are still out there, but they are not inexpensive. (Again, maybe
the community has some other options to consider?)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

tried to launch the FreeBSD bootloader, then has crashed before it could even put a message on the screen. Actually, if the FreeBSD loader is expecting a legacy BIOS it would not know how to put a message on the screen in a UEFI environment, so there would
be no message. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

to shell (if possible). If it can boot to shell, then the firmware image is OK, and it was in the handoff (or after) that the crash occurred. If it cannot boot to shell, then we may get some more data in screen output from the process to help figure out
how we can get to shell without resorting to the SPI flash programmer option. </span>
