+Test with coreboot
+------------------
+For testing U-Boot as the coreboot payload, there are things that need be paid
+attention to. coreboot supports loading an ELF executable and a 32-bit plain
+binary, as well as other supported payloads. With the default configuration,
+U-Boot is set up to use a separate Device Tree Blob (dtb). As of today, the
+generated u-boot-dtb.bin needs to be packaged by the cbfstool utility (a tool
+provided by coreboot) manually as coreboot's 'make menuconfig' does not provide
+this capability yet. The command is as follows:
+
+# in the coreboot root directory
+$ ./build/util/cbfstool/cbfstool build/coreboot.rom add-flat-binary \

+iod - Display I/O memory
+iow - Write I/O memory
