Posted by Nate DeSimone 6 years, 6 months ago 
Updated Platform/Intel/Readme.md to point to master branch on
edk2-non-osi instead of devel-MinPlatform

Updated edk2-platforms/Readme.md to point to Platform/Intel/Readme.md
for build instructions on Intel based Minimum Platforms

Added a link to the EDK II Minimum Platform Draft Specification
to Platform/Intel/Readme.md

Less happy to see this.

I am well aware that there are platform-specific steps required to
achieve the final firmware image for some systems. But we need to work
to address that. There have been discussions about implementing support
for hooking pre/post-build python scripts into the .dsc format - has
there been any progress on that?

For this patch, I would prefer if instead of adding these notes we
changed the
## [Intel](Platform/Intel/Readme.md)
### Minimum Platforms
* [Clevo](Platform/Intel/ClevoOpenBoardPkg)
* [Kaby Lake](Platform/Intel/KabylakeOpenBoardPkg)
* [Purley](Platform/Intel/PurleyOpenBoardPkg)
links to all point to (Platform/Intel) instead.

I realise that my intent with these platform links was unclear - for
all of the ARM platforms, these point to directories that have their
own Readme.md (meaning on github you see the documentation *and* the
files when you click the link).

Arguably, it would make sense to move all of the MinPlatform
... platforms ... and the Readme.md to a separate subdirectory and
link to that directory. Not everything under Platform/Intel is a
MinPlatform platform - soon there'll even be an ARM one.

Best Regards,

Leif

I'm not sure. Liming would know more on that than I. For now, our MinPlatform... platforms are using the
build_bios.py script written by Prince as a substitute.

Done. Please see patch V2.

I totally agree with you that would make more sense. Could you perhaps send an RFC and then we can start
the reorganization process?

Thanks,
Nate

I also support moving the MinPlatform platforms to a dedicated directory.

Leif, please let me know if I can be of any help to prepare the RFC.

Thanks,
