Description

https://stagex.tools/

Prerequisites:
- [ ] coreboot crossgcc, versioned buildstacks?
- [ ] coreboot ADA to compiled libgfxinit (native graphic initialization based coreboot boards)
- [ ] build packages with host compiler instead of musl-cross-make from within container

And where i'm actually interested the most for Heads
- [ ] build modules/* with native host compiler
- [ ] even.... build roms from versioned, compiled versions of modules/* content inside of StageX
- [ ] even.... have StageX have reproducible rom images for... releases?!!?

Research direction

Start with the StageX documentation at stagex.tools, then inspect the existing coreboot crossgcc, ADA/libgfxinit, musl-cross-make, modules/*, and ROM build paths. Done would require a defined StageX-based build covering the selected prerequisites and module or ROM targets, but the issue does not specify which subset is required.
