Hello. I would like to install Coreboot on my Lenovo x230, but I don't know how to do that. Please tell me how to do it. I have done a lot of research on my own, but I just can't figure it out. I am not a computer educated person. I don't have a rasberry pie. Do I need it? And what are skulls and heads, and what is the difference between them and coreboot?

Usually, to flash a coreboot to a coreboot-supported laptop, you need to build a coreboot.rom firmware image for this laptop's model - and then, use the flashrom-supported programmer (i.e. a green PCB CH341A to simplify the process and reduce the costs - it's much much cheaper and simpler than RPi) together with a test clip which is compatible with the laptop's BIOS chip shape (i.e. SOIC8). More helpful instructions could be found online for your specific model; x230 is popular enough and there are a lot of guides On Tue, Mar 7, 2023 at 9:58 PM email--- via coreboot <coreboot@coreboot.org> wrote:
