+Bayley Bay CRB
+==============
+
+This uses as FSP as with Crown Bay, except it is for the Atom E3800 series.
+Download this and get the .fd file (BAYTRAIL_FSP_GOLD_003_16-SEP-2014.fd at
+the time of writing). Put it in the corresponding board directory and rename
+it to fsp.bin.
+
+Obtain the VGA RAM (Vga.dat at the time of writing) and put it into the same
+board directory as vga.bin.
+
+You still need two more binary blobs. For Bayley Bay, they can be extracted
+from the sample SPI image provided in the FSP (SPI.bin at the time of writing)::
+
+ $ ./tools/ifdtool -x BayleyBay/SPI.bin
+ $ cp flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin board/intel/bayleybay/descriptor.bin
+ $ cp flashregion_2_intel_me.bin board/intel/bayleybay/me.bin
+
+Now you can build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.rom::
+
+ $ make bayleybay_defconfig
+ $ make all
+
+Note that the debug version of the FSP is bigger in size. If this version
+is used, CONFIG_FSP_ADDR needs to be configured to 0xfffb0000 instead of
+the default value 0xfffc0000.

+Cherry Hill CRB
+===============
+
+This uses Intel FSP for Braswell platform. Download it from Intel FSP website,
+put the .fd file to the board directory and rename it to fsp.bin.
+
+Extract descriptor.bin and me.bin from the original BIOS on the board using
+ifdtool and put them to the board directory as well.
+
+Note the FSP package for Braswell does not ship a traditional legacy VGA BIOS
+image for the integrated graphics device. Instead a new binary called Video
+BIOS Table (VBT) is shipped. Put it to the board directory and rename it to
+vbt.bin if you want graphics support in U-Boot.
+
+Now you can build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.rom::
+
+ $ make cherryhill_defconfig
+ $ make all
+
+An important note for programming u-boot.rom to the on-board SPI flash is that
+you need make sure the SPI flash's 'quad enable' bit in its status register
+matches the settings in the descriptor.bin, otherwise the board won't boot.
+
+For the on-board SPI flash MX25U6435F, this can be done by writing 0x40 to the
+status register by DediProg in: Config > Modify Status Register > Write Status
+Register(s) > Register1 Value(Hex). This is is a one-time change. Once set, it
+persists in SPI flash part regardless of the u-boot.rom image burned.

+Cougar Canyon 2 CRB
+===================
+
+This uses Intel FSP for 3rd generation Intel Core and Intel Celeron processors
+with mobile Intel HM76 and QM77 chipsets platform. Download it from Intel FSP
+website and put the .fd file (CHIEFRIVER_FSP_GOLD_001_09-OCTOBER-2013.fd at the
+time of writing) in the board directory and rename it to fsp.bin.
+
+Now build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.rom::
+
+ $ make cougarcanyon2_defconfig
+ $ make all
+
+The board has two 8MB SPI flashes mounted, which are called SPI-0 and SPI-1 in
+the board manual. The SPI-0 flash should have flash descriptor plus ME firmware
+and SPI-1 flash is used to store U-Boot. For convenience, the complete 8MB SPI-0
+flash image is included in the FSP package (named Rom00_8M_MB_PPT.bin). Program
+this image to the SPI-0 flash according to the board manual just once and we are
+all set. For programming U-Boot we just need to program SPI-1 flash. Since the
+default u-boot.rom image for this board is set to 2MB, it should be programmed
+to the last 2MB of the 8MB chip, address range [600000, 7FFFFF].

+Crown Bay CRB
+=============
+
+U-Boot support of Intel `Crown Bay`_ board relies on a binary blob called
+Firmware Support Package (`FSP`_) to perform all the necessary initialization
+steps as documented in the BIOS Writer Guide, including initialization of the
+CPU, memory controller, chipset and certain bus interfaces.
+
+Download the Intel FSP for Atom E6xx series and Platform Controller Hub EG20T,
+install it on your host and locate the FSP binary blob. Note this platform
+also requires a Chipset Micro Code (CMC) state machine binary to be present in
+the SPI flash where u-boot.rom resides, and this CMC binary blob can be found
+in this FSP package too.
+
+ * ./FSP/QUEENSBAY_FSP_GOLD_001_20-DECEMBER-2013.fd
+ * ./Microcode/C0_22211.BIN
+
+Rename the first one to fsp.bin and second one to cmc.bin and put them in the
+board directory.
+
+Note the FSP release version 001 has a bug which could cause random endless
+loop during the FspInit call. This bug was published by Intel although Intel
+did not describe any details. We need manually apply the patch to the FSP
+binary using any hex editor (eg: bvi). Go to the offset 0x1fcd8 of the FSP
+binary, change the following five bytes values from orginally E8 42 FF FF FF
+to B8 00 80 0B 00.
+
+As for the video ROM, you need manually extract it from the Intel provided
+BIOS for Crown Bay `here`_, using the AMI `MMTool`_. Check PCI option
+ROM ID 8086:4108, extract and save it as vga.bin in the board directory.
+
+Now you can build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.rom::
+
+ $ make crownbay_defconfig
+ $ make all

+Edison
+======
+
+Build Instructions for U-Boot as main bootloader
+------------------------------------------------
+
+Simple you can build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.bin::
+
+ $ make edison_defconfig
+ $ make all
+
+Updating U-Boot on Edison
+-------------------------
+
+By default Intel Edison boards are shipped with preinstalled heavily
+patched U-Boot v2014.04. Though it supports DFU which we may be able to
+use.
+
+1. Prepare u-boot.bin as described in chapter above. You still need one
+ more step (if and only if you have original U-Boot), i.e. run the
+ following command::
+
+ $ truncate -s %4096 u-boot.bin
+
+2. Run your board and interrupt booting to U-Boot console. In the console
+ call::
+
+ => run do_force_flash_os
+
+3. Wait for few seconds, it will prepare environment variable and runs
+ DFU. Run DFU command from the host system::
+
+ $ dfu-util -v -d 8087:0a99 --alt u-boot0 -D u-boot.bin
+
+4. Return to U-Boot console and following hint. i.e. push Ctrl+C, and
+ reset the board::
+
+ => reset

+Galileo
+=======
+
+Only one binary blob is needed for Remote Management Unit (RMU) within Intel
+Quark SoC. Not like FSP, U-Boot does not call into the binary. The binary is
+needed by the Quark SoC itself.
+
+You can get the binary blob from Quark Board Support Package from Intel website:
+
+ * ./QuarkSocPkg/QuarkNorthCluster/Binary/QuarkMicrocode/RMU.bin
+
+Rename the file and put it to the board directory by::
+
+ $ cp RMU.bin board/intel/galileo/rmu.bin
+
+Now you can build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.rom::
+
+ $ make galileo_defconfig

+Minnowboard MAX
+===============
+
+This uses as FSP as with Crown Bay, except it is for the Atom E3800 series.
+Download this and get the .fd file (BAYTRAIL_FSP_GOLD_003_16-SEP-2014.fd at
+the time of writing). Put it in the corresponding board directory and rename
+it to fsp.bin.
+
+Obtain the VGA RAM (Vga.dat at the time of writing) and put it into the same
+board directory as vga.bin.
+
+You still need two more binary blobs. For Minnowboard MAX, we can reuse the
+same ME firmware above, but for flash descriptor, we need get that somewhere
+else, as the one above does not seem to work, probably because it is not
+designed for the Minnowboard MAX. Now download the original firmware image
+for this board from:
+
+ * http://firmware.intel.com/sites/default/files/2014-WW42.4-MinnowBoardMax.73-64-bit.bin_Release.zip
+
+Unzip it::
+
+ $ unzip 2014-WW42.4-MinnowBoardMax.73-64-bit.bin_Release.zip
+
+Use ifdtool in the U-Boot tools directory to extract the images from that
+file, for example::
+
+ $ ./tools/ifdtool -x MNW2MAX1.X64.0073.R02.1409160934.bin
+
+This will provide the descriptor file - copy this into the correct place::
+
+ $ cp flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin board/intel/minnowmax/descriptor.bin
+
+Now you can build U-Boot and obtain u-boot.rom::
+
+ $ make minnowmax_defconfig
+ $ make all
+
+Checksums are as follows (but note that newer versions will invalidate this)::
+
+ $ md5sum -b board/intel/minnowmax/*.bin
+ ffda9a3b94df5b74323afb328d51e6b4 board/intel/minnowmax/descriptor.bin

+ a2588537da387da592a27219d56e9962 board/intel/minnowmax/vga.bin
+
+The ROM image is broken up into these parts:
+
+====== ================== ============================
+Offset Description Controlling config
+====== ================== ============================
+000000 descriptor.bin Hard-coded to 0 in ifdtool
+001000 me.bin Set by the descriptor
+500000 <spare>
+6ef000 Environment CONFIG_ENV_OFFSET
+6f0000 MRC cache CONFIG_ENABLE_MRC_CACHE
+700000 u-boot-dtb.bin CONFIG_SYS_TEXT_BASE
+7b0000 vga.bin CONFIG_VGA_BIOS_ADDR
+7c0000 fsp.bin CONFIG_FSP_ADDR
+7f8000 <spare> (depends on size of fsp.bin)
+7ff800 U-Boot 16-bit boot CONFIG_SYS_X86_START16
+====== ================== ============================
+
+Overall ROM image size is controlled by CONFIG_ROM_SIZE.
+
+Note that the debug version of the FSP is bigger in size. If this version
+is used, CONFIG_FSP_ADDR needs to be configured to 0xfffb0000 instead of
+the default value 0xfffc0000.
