Thanks for your reply, Joseph. Sounds quite encouraging. Could you suggest, what I can start with? Qemu maybe? Do you think there would be a need for a lot of programming? I hope I would be able to handle this. Any I will surely need quite some help... It's been quite a while since I last wrote any significant portion of code. What did you mean I should look for at http://www.coreboot.org/Laptop? I didn't notice anything much related to my hardware there. Probably I do not yet associate the therms with each other too well. -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
