Re: Freeze during booting of ASUS F2A85-M motherboard with Coreboot

Problem is, my serial console cable (USB<->RS232, because I don't have
RS232 port in my computers), seems to be broken, so I'm only attaching
verbose boot log from stock UEFI.

I have also found a great website (
https://review.coreboot.org/cgit/board-status.git/tree/ ) which seems to
contain working Coreboot configs. I am going to try it tomorrow.
