Hi Niclas,
Just a heads up, damo22 in the IRC channel has said that a new patch
will be merged in coreboot soon which should improve raminit, so you
might have better luck later with that. I'm waiting for it to be
merged in coreboot before adding it to libreboot, and then I will
build a new snapshot for people to try. Watch out for this
