help
The Intel processor in the selected system requires a special firmware
for an integrated controller called Management Engine (ME). The ME
firmware might be provided in coreboot's 3rdparty/blobs repository. If
not and if you don't have the firmware elsewhere, you can still
build coreboot without it. In this case however, you'll have to make
sure that you don't overwrite your ME firmware on your flash ROM.

config BUILD_WITH_FAKE_IFD
bool "Build with a fake IFD" if !HAVE_IFD_BIN
help
If you don't have an Intel Firmware Descriptor (descriptor.bin) for your
board, you can select this option and coreboot will build without it.
The resulting coreboot.rom will not contain all parts required
to get coreboot running on your board. You can however write only the
BIOS section to your board's flash ROM and keep the other sections
untouched. Unfortunately the current version of flashrom doesn't
support this yet. But there is a patch pending [1].
WARNING: Never write a complete coreboot.rom to your flash ROM if it
was built with a fake IFD. It just won't work.
