hanetzer: was it you who was porting u-boot to the gru-bob chromebook?
<hanetzer>
sphalerite: kevin. actually ended up doing work on coreboot to make it work with a FIT image
<sphalerite>
ah, nice
<hanetzer>
now my payload is petitboot

<sphalerite>
ooooh even cooler :p
<sphalerite>
do you happen to have/know of build instructions? :^)
<hanetzer>
sphalerite: yeah, but its all in my head atm.
<hanetzer>
I need to start a blog or something.
<sphalerite>
hah, ok
<sphalerite>
yes! I would very much appreciate that :D
<hanetzer>
sphalerite: basic gist is buildroot with tweaks, make a fit image from the products, and add that to your build
<sphalerite>
annoying how the kevin isn't available in europe AFAICT
<hanetzer>
since you only have 8mb of spi flash to work with, its a bit painful :)
<sphalerite>
FWIW I haven't built coreboot before, so that doesn't help me much yet :/
<hanetzer>
honestly its pretty easy. standardish menuconfig thing.
<sphalerite>
oh good
<sphalerite>
hanetzer: does buildroot take care of building the kernel and stuff? And is there a lot of manual work involved in getting it small enough?
<hanetzer>
sphalerite: yeah, it does kernel/initramfs/dtb
<hanetzer>
however trimming was 'fun' and did take quite a lot of work.
<hanetzer>
you need the final fit image to be somewhere under 7.2mb or so
<sphalerite>
I can imagine
<sphalerite>
but for the most part I should be able to reuse your work, right?
<hanetzer>
yeh. I can pass you the .config if you want it
<sphalerite>
yes please! <3 if I ever meet you irl I need to buy you a beer or something (or several :D )

there's apparently some work being done on moving the petitboot package outta op-build (the open-power buildroot overlay) into buildroot
