        it's telling you that you need to specify -c with the chipname
        you should ask pcengine forum if no one here want to take responsibility for damage to your board

          That must be what we were selling as an APU4 right? Which is actually an APU1 with 4GB RAM. You will need to APU1 rom file if so.

          There is no real reason to update Coreboot on that I'm ware of though.
