Building coreboot

Please follow the Star Labs build instructions to build coreboot, using config.starlabs_starbook_czn as config file.

Preliminaries

Prior to building coreboot the following files are required:

  • AMD Cezanne PSP/SMU firmware binaries (used by src/mainboard/starlabs/cezanne/fw.cfg)

  • ITE Embedded Controller firmware (ec.bin)

If you enable CONFIG_ADD_APCB_SOURCES, additional APCB files are required (see src/mainboard/starlabs/cezanne/Makefile.mk).

The files listed below are optional:

  • Splash screen image in Windows 3.1 BMP format (Logo.bmp)

These files exist in the correct location in the StarLabsLtd/blobs repo on GitHub which is used in place of the standard 3rdparty/blobs repo.

Build

The following commands will build a working image:

make distclean
make defconfig KBUILD_DEFCONFIG=configs/config.starlabs_starbook_czn
