It is usually good enough to boot, but many things will not be working properly. To make a proper coreboot port for a laptop, one needs to add support for the embedded controller, which usually handles the battery charger, keyboard, touchpad and fan, among other things. Unfortunately, they are almost always undocumented: no datasheets are publicly available and it runs custom, mainboard-specific firmware. This is by far the hardest part of porting a laptop. Do you plan on porting any specific netbook? If the chipset is not supported, porting it may take years even for an experienced developer. _______________________________________________ > coreboot mailing list -- [email protected] > To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Regards, Angel Pons
