Releases

"Release" means that a new coreboot git revision with substantially different code has been adapted for libreboot.

"Revision" means a modification to an existing release, where the result is insubstantially different from what preceded it.

The 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th releases were really just older revisions of the 5th release. For historical reasons (and to avoid confusion), these are still called 'releases' instead of correcting the mistake.

4th release

Officially supported

Binaries (for flashing)

Source code (for hacking)

Development notes

The "Parse" options read ./isolinux/isolinux.cfg on a CD or USB, and automatically converts it to a grub config and switches to the boot menu of that distro. This makes booting ISOs *much* easier than before.
