Hi,

it may also be a Cedarview chipset. According to my knowledge there is
no support for Cedarview chipset in coreboot. However coreboot has
slightly older (1 year older) chipset support - Pineview.

My experience is very little when it comes to older chipsets, but
judging by how sanydbridge and ivybridge works, pineview and cedarview
should have most thing in common. That said, i would try to go out from
pineview northbridge in coreboot. The next question is which southbirdge
to choose. There are two mainboards based on pineview. Most likely you
would have to select:

    select CPU_INTEL_SOCKET_FCBGA559
    select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_PINEVIEW
    select SOUTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I82801GX

in your mainboard Kconfig. The CPU socket also matches according to
Intel ARK about N2600

The initialization for that particular silicon is native so no FSP
required. Since it may be hard to debug, I advise to get a USB debug
dongle and enable it in coreboot menuconfig. But before that, find out
which USB port on this netbook is connected to EHCI debug port.
Typically it is the first port on the root hub. You can find it out
using lspci and lsusb in Linux (by connecting a USB-UART dongle for
example to the investigated port). The dongles supported by coreboot
are: FTDI232H/FTDI2232H, or you can use BeagleBone board.
