If cbfstool segfaults, then keep this in mind. 'strace' (or gdb? clang?) could be used for debugging. This was in libreboot 5th release (based on coreboot from late 2013). Not sure if the issue perists in the 6th release (based on coreboot from June 1st, 2014 at the time of writing); I have never personally encountered the bug. strace (from that user) is here: <a href="cbfstool_libreboot5_strace">cbfstool_libreboot5_strace</a>.
