And all sites that i found that gave me every little bit of information to get Coreboot
working on the Nokia IP530.
Coreboot (formerly known as LinuxBIOS) is a Free Software
project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) you
can find in most of today's computers. It performs just a little bit
of hardware initialization and then executes a so-called payload.
Flashrom is a utility for identifying, reading, writing, verifying
and erasing flash chips. Flashrom is designed to flash BIOS/EFI/
Coreboot/firmware/option ROM images on main boards,
network/graphics/storage
programmer devices.
SeaBIOS is an open source implementation of a 16bit X86 BIOS.
SeaBIOS can run in an emulator or it can run natively on X86
hardware with the use of Coreboot.
The Google Serial Graphics Adapter BIOS or SGABIOS
provides a means for legacy x86 software to communicate with
an attached serial console as if a video card were attached.
SGABIOS is designed to be inserted into a BIOS as an option
rom to provide over a serial port the display and input
capabilities normally handled by a VGA adapter and a keyboard,
and additionally provide hooks for logging displayed characters
for later collection after an operating system boots. It is designed
to handle all text mode output sent to the legacy video bios int
10h service routine. INT 10h is the most common method for
displaying characters in 16-bit legacy x86 code.
