Hi,

Just a note for those who want to boot into TianoCore from dev mode
with recent firmware.

There is a new Alternative Firmware (altfw) feature to support this, with:

USE="-cb_legacy_tianocore altfw tianocore" emerge chromeos-bootimage

(the old cb_legacy_tianocore is not used anymore and will soon go away)

Then you press '2' at the dev-mode screen to boot TianCore at the
dev-mode screen. Ctrl-L will soon produce a menu of available
bootloaders. For now it *should* boot Tianocore but I have a report
that it does not. So please use '2' for now.

Regards,
Simon

Tianocore is also the default on ToT now.
