Hi and thanks for your quick reply! I was actually planning to start adding coreboot packages to Debian, initially for a very limited set of platforms. The thing is that it's not easy at all to build seabios from inside coreboot. It either requires internet access at build time, which makes it impossible to properly debianise, or needs tweaking in coreboot's already extremely convoluted build system. Having a seabios image already in the system and picking it up directly as a payload is by far the easiest way to include it.
