Acer Chromebook CBOA314 Palutena (rev2) black screen

Hi Mr chromebox I’ve this board and when I flash the full firmware rom I get a black screen.
The script allows me to flash the pirika rom. I have of course the back-up rom thanks to your script. Can I flash the palutena full rom ? I’ve already restored the back-up rom with linux and flashrom, so back to square one.

no, the script uses coreboot_edk2-palutena-mrchromebox_20250427.rom for your device.
PALUTENA is a variant of PIRIKA (same board different SKU), but different firmware image.

I would reflash and confirm which image is used. If it fails to boot, then reflash the UEFI ROM via suzyq. If still fails, I can provide a debug image to see what’s going on

So I’ve reflashed with the script and cleared the nvram before rebooting and it worked this time. :grinning_face: Thank you.


why? it’s cleared when you flash the firmware for the first time.
