2017-06-07Use more secure HTTPS URLs for coreboot sitesPaul Menzel
The coreboot sites support HTTPS, and requests over HTTP with SSL are also redirected. So use the more secure URLs, which also saves a request most of the times, as nothing needs to be redirected. Run the command below to replace all occurences. ``` $ git grep -l -E 'http://(www.|review.|)coreboot.org' | xargs sed -i 's,http://\(.*\)coreboot.org,https://\1coreboot.org,g' ``` Change-Id: If53f8b66f1ac72fb1a38fa392b26eade9963c369 Signed-off-by: Paul Menzel <paulepanter@users.sourceforge.net> Reviewed-on: https://review.coreboot.org/20034 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) <no-reply@coreboot.org> Reviewed-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@google.com>

2015-07-30README: improve description of compiler requirementsPatrick Georgi
People run into "building bootblock without the required toolchain" too often. Update documentation so they don't try to use random compilers to build coreboot.

2010-04-08Replace sconfig with a C implementation.Patrick Georgi
(smaller, faster, standard parser generator, no more python) Provide precompiled parser, so bison and flex are optional dependencies. Adapt Makefile and abuild (which uses some sconfig file as a magic path) to match. Drop python as dependency from README, and add bison and flex as optional dependencies Signed-off-by: Patrick Georgi <patrick.georgi@coresystems.de> Acked-by: Stefan Reinauer <stepan@coresystems.de> Acked-by: Ronald G.

2010-02-25Various minor fixes (trivial).Uwe Hermann
- More license header cosmetics. - New official "Building coreboot" document is now at: http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO - Drop "(mostly those derived from the Linux kernel)" part of the GPL-v2-only parts from the README. Many other files are also GPL-v2-only, too.

2010-02-10Remove two perl calls with sed, and adds an alternativePatrick Georgi
for another two (using GNU date, and with limited impact if both alternatives fail) Those were the remaining perl calls in our build tree, so remove perl from our dependency list in README.
