This page describes how to run coreboot on the Facebook Monolith.
Please note: the coreboot implementation for this boards is in its Alpha state and isn't fully tested yet.
This board currently requires: fsp blobs 3rdparty/fsp/KabylakeFspBinPkg/Fsp_M.fd 3rdparty/fsp/KabylakeFspBinPkg/Fsp_S.fd
Microcode 3rdparty/intel-microcode/intel-ucode
The SPI flash can be accessed using flashrom.
The system has an internal flash chip which is a 16 MiB soldered SOIC-8 chip. Specifically, it's a Winbond W25Q128JVSIQ (3.3V).

Flashing of these devices is very difficult, disassembling the system destroys the cooling solution. Wires need to be connected to be able to flash using an external programmer.
All of the above has been briefly tested by booting Linux from the TianoCore payload. SeaBios has been checked to the extend that it runs to the boot selection and provides display output.
