Libreboot release 6 beta 3.r20140720
- Fixed typo that existed in 2nd beta where the release date of the
2nd beta was listed as being in year 2016, when in actual fact it
was 2014.
- Documentation: added (preliminary) details about (rare) buggy CPU's
on the ThinkPad T60 that were found to fail (instability, kernel
panics, etc) without the microcode updates.
- Documentation: added docs/howtos/x60_heatsink.html for showing how
to change the heatsink on the Thinkpad X60
- Added ROM images for Azerty (French) keyboard layout in GRUB
(courtesy of Olivier Mondoloni)
- Tidied up some scripts:
- Re-factored those scripts (made easier to read/maintain):
build-x60, build-x60t, build-t60, build-macbook21
- Reduced the number of grub configs to 2 (or 1, for macbook21), the
build scripts now generate the other configs at build time.
- Deleted build-x60, build-x60t, build-t60, build-macbook21 and
replaced with intelligent (generic) buildrom-withgrub script
- Updated build to use buildrom-withgrub script for building the ROM
images.
- coreboot.rom and coreboot_serial.rom renamed to
coreboot_usqwerty.rom and coreboot_serial_usqwerty.rom
- coreboot_dvorak and coreboot_serial_dvorak.rom renamed to
coreboot_usdvorak.rom and coreboot_serial_usdvorak.rom
- Renamed coreboot*rom to libreboot*rom
- Made flash, lenovobios_firstflash and lenovobios_secondflash
scripts fail if the specified file does not exist.
- Updated all relevant parts of the documentation to reflect the
above.
- Replaced background.png with background.jpg. added
gnulove.jpg. (resources/grub/background/)
- Updated buildrom-withgrub to use background.jpg instead of
background.png
- Updated buildrom-withgrub to use gnulove.jpg aswell
- Updated resources/grub/config/macbook21/grub*cfg to use gnulove.jpg
background.
- Updated resources/grub/config/{x60,t60,x60t}/grub*cfg to use
background.jpg background.
- Documentation: updated docs/index.html#grub_custom_keyboard to be
more generally useful.
- nvramtool:
- Updated builddeps-coreboot script to build it
- Updated build script to include it in libreboot_bin
- Documentation: added docs/howtos/x60_security.html (security
hardening for X60)
