- Make libreboot buildable in Parabola: update deps-parabola for a default Parabola install (base repository only).
-
- get all useful info from http://www.coreboot.org/GRUB2 and https://wiki.parabolagnulinux.org/User:GNUtoo/laptop and make it into a tutorial
-
- Todo: test gnutoo's fallback patches: http://www.coreboot.org/Fallback_mechanism
- (some parts use systemd. adapt for upstart, which is what trisquel uses)
- see this IRC log (warning, not cleaned up)

- Documentation: added as many links as I could find, to datasheets and schematics for macbook21/x60/t60 (i945 chipset, EC info for x60/t60/macbook21)
- Documentation: Add a "development guide" for how to maintain libreboot ('get' scripts, deblob scripts, associated files under ./resources and so on)
+ Adapt linux-libre deblob scripts for use with coreboot. Libreboot is already deblobbed
+ using it's own script, but updating it is still a bit too manual. linux-libre's deblob
+ scripts do an excellent job and (adapted) will make it much easier to maintain coreboot-libre.
