Don't hold your breath.

Boards are removed in master if noone contributes test results for
a long enough time.

The code of course remains available in the last release branch before
removal.

coreboot code is rarely if ever exhaustive on modular platforms.
You'll have to rethink expectations. Noone can and will tell you
"all working CPUs" or "all non-working CPUs" for a board.

You have to expect to test everything you care about yourself. It's
fine if you can't spend that much time. Many are interested in the
project and also can not. That's why the board was removed from
master.


I hope your testing goes well!
