+Supported boards/laptops
+========================
+
+To see the list of all supported boards or laptops, check either ``struct board_info boards_known[]`` or ``struct board_info laptops_known[]``
+in the ``known_boards.c`` file in the source tree.
+
+If you have a flashrom repo cloned locally, you can look at the file in your repo, alternatively inspect the file
+`on the web UI of our GitHub mirror <https://github.com/flashrom/flashrom/blob/main/known_boards.c#L29>`_.
+
+If you can run flashrom locally, the command ``flashrom -L`` prints the list of all supported boards and laptops
+(see :doc:`/classic_cli_manpage` for more details on command line options). The output of this command is long, so you might
+want to save it to file or grep.
+
+Each board entry is described by the ``struct board_info`` in ``include/programmer.h`` which you can inspect in the same way, either in the local source tree or
+`in the GitHub web UI <https://github.com/flashrom/flashrom/blob/main/include/programmer.h#L207>`_.
+
+Note the ``enum test_state status`` of the board. ``OK`` means board is tested, ``NT`` means not tested, to see all possible
+test states check the ``enum test_state`` definition in ``include/flash.h``.
