coreboot - The last frontier: Laptops

A session at FOSDEM 2012

coreboot is a free firmware for x86 computers. It is designed as an extremely fast and lightweight alternative to BIOS and EFI (poweron to OS in <500 ms) while retaining the flexibility to boot any operating system. A few hundred desktop/server/embedded mainboards are supported, but supported laptops were unavailable in shops until now.

The coreboot developers are proud to present the first working mainstream laptop here at FOSDEM. We'll tell you how we did it, and how you can enjoy coreboot on your hardware as well.
