* README: improve description of compiler requirementsPatrick Georgi2015-07-301-3/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* Replace sconfig with a C implementation.Patrick Georgi2010-04-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (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.

* Various minor fixes (trivial).Uwe Hermann2010-02-251-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - 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.

* Remove two perl calls with sed, and adds an alternativePatrick Georgi2010-02-101-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.
