[coreboot] Re: How newbie can contribute to the project as developper

[Mike Banon]

I think, first of all you need to either get a coreboot-supported
motherboard, or a motherboard the components of which are similar
enough to those already supported by coreboot and try to get this
board supported. Then you could: i.e. check what is working on this
board and try to fix what doesn't, or dig into some "more universal"
things that benefit all the coreboot boards. Because: although you
could still build a coreboot+SeaBIOS for QEMU and run it there, it's
not a real hardware and the scope of things which you could improve -
is more limited with QEMU (although it's still a great thing when you
i.e. would like to improve some SeaBIOS part or anything else
"universal")

Hello,

Just to double check, you are definitely not cloning the repository in
Windows?  Someone mentioned to me that 'con' is an invalid file or
directory name on Windows and I forgot to update that.  I can push a patch
for that today.

Cheers,
Tim

Yes  have some problem with some test to getting started : 

git clone https://review.coreboot.org/coreboot coreboot
Clonage dans 'coreboot'...
remote: Counting objects: 637, done
remote: Finding sources: 100% (623/623)
remote: Total 553974 (delta 86), reused 553737 (delta 86)
Réception d'objets: 100% (553974/553974), 142.97 Mio | 1.51 Mio/s, fait.
Résolution des deltas: 100% (421681/421681), fait.
fatal: cannot create directory at 'src/drivers/intel/pmc_mux/con': Argument 
invalide
warning: Le clone a réussi, mais l'extraction a échoué.
Vous pouvez inspecter ce qui a été extrait avec 'git status'
et réessayer avec 'git restore --source=HEAD :/'


My system is kali linux , ... wich step can i allow it ?? please

Hi,

First of all: Welcome. The best thing to do would be to either join the
IRC channel or Slack channel that we do have. You can find the IRC
Channel on https://coreboot.org/developers.html in the community
section. To be invited into the slack channel go here:
http://slack.u-root.com/ . Not sure on what you current expertise is
with firmware - a good starting point might be checking out the
documentation on doc.coreboot.org - There is also a tutorial section
where you can easily get started.

Hope this helps a little bit.

Best,

Chris
