This guide is for those who want libreboot on their Intel GA-G41M-ES2L motherboard while they still have the original BIOS present.
Refer to bbb_setup.html for how to set up the BBB for external flashing.
Internal flashing is possible. Boot with the proprietary BIOS and GNU/Linux. There are 2 flash chips (one is backup).
Flash the first chip:
./flashrom -p internal:dualbiosindex=0 -w libreboot.rom
Flash the second chip:
./flashrom -p internal:dualbiosindex=1 -w libreboot.rom
