Re: [edk2-platforms] [PATCH V1] PurleyOpenBoardPkg : Support for LINUX Boot

["Oram, Isaac W" <isaac.w.oram@intel.com>]

Manic,

I don't think that there is much value in having two different flash maps for LinuxBoot enabled or disabled.  It strikes me as unnecessary code to maintain.  
LinuxKernel.inf is missing a properly formatted file header.
LinuxBoot.c should be run through code style compliance tools.  Also there is unnecessary commented out code and things like #if 1 that should be removed.
LinuxBoot.h has tabs in the source disrupting structure layout and not following coding style.
Please rename LinuxBootPkg as it is not an edk2 package and the name is a bit misleading.

We should do an RFC to talk about the various LinuxBoot integrations that we see across the community and maybe discuss at the design meeting.  I think you are fine to commit this version as it is fairly specific to your use case, so that design discussion shouldn't block this fix.

Regards,
Isaac

Subject: [edk2-platforms] [PATCH V1] PurleyOpenBoardPkg : Support for LINUX Boot

From: Manickavasakam Karpagavinayagam <manickavasakamk@ami.com>

Support for LINUX Boot
To enable/disable feature, PcdLinuxBootEnable can be used
1.	Follow directions on http://osresearch.net/Building/ to compile the heads kernel and initrd for qemu-system_x86_64
2.	Copy the following built files
(1) initrd.cpio.xz  to LinuxBootPkg/LinuxBinaries/initrd.cpio.xz
(2) bzimage to LinuxBootPkg/LinuxBinaries/linux.efi
