I wrote there that I think that is unlikely to happen and linked to https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop/updates/fsf-ryf-background. Then someone else mentioned that a closed-source BootROM is used for Chip. Another guy with username "eaterjolly" wrote about this BootROM: "The same type of SOC is used for the EOMA croud project which is vying for ryf-endorsement quite openly [...]" You can find the forum thread here: https://bbs.nextthing.co/t/ntc-thoughts-on-ryf-endorsement/4490 Because they use Discourse to power their forum which relies heavily on JavaScript I also attach a Pdf version of the forum post. I wonder if the mentioned statements are correct and how it relates to the RYF certification of the EOMA68-A20 Libre Tea card. kind regards Paro ----- End forwarded message ----- _______________________________________________ arm-netbook mailing list [email protected] http://lists.phcomp.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/arm-netbook Send large attachments to [email protected]
