_Sigh_, there's a #libreboot fork called #canoeboot, it's developed by the same dev, but they don't quite explain why this happened? At least my HW is supported by both...

OTOH, why would a WiFi card be incompatible with a 13yo #Lenovo T430?

Canoeboot – Free, Libre BIOS/UEFI boot firmware

Has anyone had experience installing libreboot or canoeboot (coreboot fork)? Any issues I should know about? Which laptops are supported (besides thinkpads)?

@TheyCallMeHacked @ariadne well, #canoeboot is a #shitpost by @libreleah so that's acceptable...

granted I do have some hardware that has reached the 20+ year age soon and even that has #microcode updates because everything more modern than a C3 or Geode LX800 needs those...

The Canoeboot project provides free (libre) boot firmware based on coreboot, replacing proprietary BIOS/UEFI firmware on specific Intel/AMD x86 and ARM based motherboards, including laptop and desktop computers. It initialises the hardware (e.g. memory controller, CPU, peripherals) and starts a bootloader for your operating system. GNU+Linux and BSD are well-supported. Help is available via #canoeboot on Libera IRC.

Should Canoeboot become GNU Canoeboot?
