Chromium OS Support in U-Boot
|
|
=============================
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
This describes how to use U-Boot with Chromium OS. Several options are
|
|
available:
|
|
|
|
- Running U-Boot from the 'altfw' feature, which is available on selected
|
|
Chromebooks from 2019 onwards (initially Grunt). Press '1' from the
|
|
developer-mode screen to get into U-Boot. See here for details:
|
|
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/docs/+/HEAD/developer_mode.md
|
|
|
|
- Running U-Boot from the disk partition. This involves signing U-Boot and
|
|
placing it on the disk, for booting as a 'kernel'. See
|
|
:doc:`chainload` for information on this. This is the only
|
|
option on non-U-Boot Chromebooks from 2013 to 2018 and is somewhat
|
|
more involved.
|
|
|
|
- Running U-Boot with Chromium OS verified boot. This allows U-Boot to be
|
|
used instead of either or both of depthcharge (a bootloader which forked
|
|
from U-Boot in 2013) and coreboot. See :doc:`run_vboot` for more
|
|
information on this.
|
|
|
|
- Running U-Boot from coreboot. This allows U-Boot to run on more devices
|
|
since many of them only support coreboot as the bootloader and have
|
|
no bare-metal support in U-Boot. For this, use the 'coreboot' target.
|
|
|
|
- Running U-Boot and booting into a Chrome OS image, but without verified
|
|
boot. This can be useful for testing.

- Describes Chrome OS firmware as of 2018 and includes a wide range of

topics. This has no U-Boot information, but does cover coreboot and also

talks about the Chrome OS EC and Security chip. This is probably the
|
|
best introduction talk.
