[coreboot] Retroboot 20201228 beta release, 28 December 2020

2020-12-28 Thread Leah Rowe via coreboot
Hello coreboot community!

I would like to formally announce a new project I've been working on for
the last few weeks.

Retroboot is based on coreboot, and today I have made an official
release. This release is available from the https://retroboot.org/ with
ROM images and source code provided. Please read the Retroboot
documentation if you wish to learn how to use them. Support is provided
at the #retroboot IRC channel on Freenode.

Retroboot is a new coreboot distribution, forked from the Libreboot
20160907 build system, but allows binary blobs from coreboot and uses an
up to date version of coreboot. The purpose of Retroboot is to provide
pre-compiled ROM images for any system that coreboot supports.
Retroboot, based on coreboot, provides hardware initialization on
supported x86 computers; it sets up the hardware and boots an operating
system such as GNU+Linux, BSD and Windows.

Retroboot provides an automated build system that compiled coreboot,
GRUB, SeaBIOS and various other required software, with specific
configurations. It provides a completely automated way to build and test
ROM images of coreboot, in various configurations. Each board added to
Retroboot can specify a coreboot version at a specific commit ID from
the coreboot Git repository, and custom patches. It can then be used
with any number of coreboot payloads such as GRUB, SeaBIOS and (planned
for a future release) Tianocore and linuxboot. Read the documentation on
the Retroboot website for more information about each system supported
in the Retroboot build system.

The aim of Retroboot is to make coreboot easy to use. Coreboot is
notoriously difficult to build, and very much not user friendly.
Retroboot provides user focused documentation and professional support
based on years of experience dealing with coreboot. I, Leah Rowe, am the
founder of the Retroboot project and I am also the founder of the
Libreboot project.

This release, marked beta, released on 28 December 2020, supports the
following machines:

  * ThinkPad X220 (untested at the time of release)
  * ThinkPad X230 (tested on a few machines at the time of release)
  * ThinkPad X230 Tablet (untested at the time of release, but X230 is
the same board as the X230T, with minor differences, so the X230T
ROMs should work)
  * ThinkPad T60 with ATI Mobility Radeon X1400, PCI ID 1002:7145
(tested on one machine at the time of release)

NOTE: /tested/ in this context means that the machine can be observed
booting a Linux kernel. Also, Windows 10 was confirmed to boot on the
X230 with Intel VGA ROM and SeaBIOS payload. (we recommend the use of
free operating systems like GNU+Linux).

For documentation, refer to the accompnying source code release archive.
Documentation is included in that archive. You can also refer to the
documentation hosted directly at https://retroboot.org/ and this is more
recommended due to it being more up to date.

This is a public /beta/ release. The ROM images provided in this release
are NOT guaranteed to boot correctly on your machine. If you install
this, you should make sure that you have SPI flashing equipment (for
flashing 25XX NOR flash) and, ideally, debugging equipment such as EHCI
debug dongle.

Extensive testing is required for all of the ROMs in this release, so
user testing is highly encouraged! The plan for Retroboot is to have
long, long periods of /testing/ releases, before versions are marked
stable (similar to how the Debian project operates).


More information about Retroboot can be found on the Retroboot website:

https://retroboot.org/

Extensive documentation is provided, including for developers.

I'm currently looking for people to add and maintain boards in
Retroboot. The entire build system is documented here:

[coreboot] retroboot: new coreboot distro with automated build system

2020-12-27 Thread Leah Rowe via coreboot


Posted this in #coreboot IRC just now

Retroboot is a new build system forked from Libreboot build system. It
provides an automated build system around coreboot, GRUB, SeaBIOS, and
all the other components needed, and provides ROMs for users. it
provides documentation aimed at non-technical users, and user support.

Unlike Libreboot, it allows blobs and includes the 3rdparty repo. It is
a very competent build system and can have *any* coreboot system added
to it.

Boards specify a revision aswell, so it's possible to specify older
coreboot revisions if you want to add a board that was removed from
coreboot.

06:12  https://retroboot.org/ launched yesterday
06:13  it's a new coreboot distribution. it tries to use the
latest version of coreboot at all times, and provides an automated build
system around coreboot that integrates many other things such as payloads
06:13  the aim is to provide pre-built ROMs, utilities and
user-friendly documentation, with user-friendly support, but developer
documentation is also provided which explains the entire build system
06:13  there are no releases yet, just the website and the
git repo, but build instructions are provided.
06:14  it is a fork of the libreboot 20160907 build system,
with many improvements. i've worked on it non-stop for 2 weeks.
06:14  it's based on libreboot build system, but allows
blobs from coreboot and includes the 3rdparty repo.
06:14  it can support any board from coreboot, and i welcome
any and all coreboot users who wish to give it a try!
06:15  This is build instructions:
https://retroboot.org/docs/git/
06:15  This is maintenance instructions (shows how to add
new boards and maintain them): https://retroboot.org/docs/maintain/
06:15  adding boards is basicall: add a config, specify what
payload you want, add whatever customer patches you want. then build!
06:16  IRC is #retroboot if you wish to discuss development.
though no actual coreboot development is allowed; coreboot dev must be
done in coreboot, with your coreboot work mergede downstream in retroboot
06:16  enjoy!
06:16  just thought i'd post this here

This is also by virtue of the way MediaWiki is designed.

Not only that, but it wasn't clear how to get an account in the first
place.



By the way, what do you think of the idea I floated in a previous
message? My idea is to have some kind of web interface where a
non-technical user who doesn't know how to use git can browse the
documentation on the website and click "edit", which will take them to
the appropriate markdown file in the repository. When they're done,
they give their edit a title and description, which becomes the commit
message, and their contribution gets sent to code review (Gerrit).

How feasible do you think this would be?
It would give some of the ease of use of MediaWiki as before, while
still having all of the advantages that you listed.

Git is more portable than MediaWiki. It allows more people to be able
to easily submit documentation changes. The documentation is in the
repo under Documentation/ as Markdown files.

Markdown is much simpler than the markup language used by MediaWiki.

Plus you can make easy frontends for editing files in a git
repository. E.g. GitHub does it. I wouldn't recommend use of GitHub
since it's proprietary, but that's just an example. Where a user
doesn't even need to understand git, they just log in and click
"edit", edit whatever they like in a web interface and then that goes
to a pull request for code review. I'm not sure if coreboot does that.
We tried in Libreboot but it's currently not possible due to a
limitation in Gogs, the software that we use for Git-based code review.

So it's possible to have something wiki-like while being hosted in Git.

Very well. I was just giving you a warning.

Because this has happened with libreboot.git. I'm strongly considering
splitting the repo into several smaller repos, with docs separated.

I just thought I'd give you a heads up, several years in advance.

Wait a few years when more pages are added to the docs. Add images.
The repo will start becoming gigabytes in size.

[coreboot] proposal: coreboot docs in separate repo

2018-06-12 Thread Leah Rowe
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

So...

Why is the coreboot documentation in the main git repository?

That's going to weigh down the repository and make it huge, over the
years. It means that adding images etc is going to be a pain too.

What do people think about having the docs as a separate repository?
This way people who want to work on code but not docs don't have to
download docs.

And images using some kind of hosting site (by coreboot) e.g.
images.coreboot.org (since putting images in a git repository isn't
really a good idea)

[coreboot] static site generator for coreboot documentation in git repository

2018-06-12 Thread Leah Rowe
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

Hi,

I recently heard of the plan to retire the wiki.

Personally, I think that's a great idea. Move it all into coreboot.git
instead.

I notice that Documentation/ has .md files in it in coreboot.git. So I
wonder, is there a static site generator in coreboot.git for
generating the documentation into a website? If not, is one being
developed?

That would make the documentation accessible to the public via web
browser.

The Libreboot documentation has done this for quite a while now. The
whole website and documentation on the site is actually in
libreboot.git as Markdown files. We have a static site generator in
the repository (written by us) which uses Pandoc to convert Markdown
files into html files, which generates the site.

If this isn't yet implemented or being worked on in coreboot, I'd be
happy to work on it.

My question was answered by Patrick Georgi. I just wanted a backup of
the wiki in case it was shut down in the future.

Since coreboot is important to me, I have now downloaded those dumps
of the wiki as suggested. I'm sure that most of the documentation from
the wiki will be transferred over to coreboot.git.

Thanks for answering my questions.

Is this updated regularly?

(the fact that the wiki is RO means this is probably a stupid
question, but I ask it nonetheless in case I need to update my backups
regularly)

Hi,

Now that the wiki is being retired, is there a backup of the wiki
(database, files etc) so that someone else can host it elsewhere? For
archival purposes.

Can you also do this on a periodic basis?

If you've got a D16 to submit reports on, that'd also be great.

Thank you Daniel.

if anyone can test D16 too, that'd be great.

I'll be really upset if D8/D16, or any libreboot-supported hardware,
is removed from coreboot.git.

Timothy, I think that you should heavily promote the TALOS on the
coreboot list and also ask to have it promoted on the vendors page on
coreboot.org. The kind of people that want the hardware you sell are
here in the coreboot community in large numbers. Of course, this is
assuming that the leadership in coreboot would permit you to promote
it here.

While not technically coreboot, it is indeed libre hardware that you
are selling, and does come with free boot firmware similar to coreboot.

For this reason, I personally (with approval from other members of the
project) added you to libreboot.org aswell; see:

https://libreboot.org/suppliers.html#raptor-engineering
https://libreboot.org/news/talos.html

It's very important for the sake of the free software movement that
your TALOS II effort succeeds and thrives.

Yes, this is what I'm banking on. If coreboot can arrange that, and
get AMD in its meetings then that would be great.

That, plus raising public awareness and showing demand from the
public. That's what I'm trying to do here, but we need people in
coreboot to help out since coreboot has better relations with AMD that
libreboot does.

Hi all,

https://libreboot.org/amd-libre/

We call on coreboot to join us in our campaign to convince AMD to
start cooperating with the libre hardware community again. Are there
people in coreboot already doing this?

[coreboot] Libreboot X220 pre-order from Minifree - libre firmware preinstalled

2017-02-17 Thread Leah Rowe
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

Hi all,

Minifree has launched a new freedom-friendly laptop, with the free and
open source Libreboot BIOS replacement, and Debian GNU+Linux
preinstalled. This is the first modern laptop available with entirely
libre software at every level, with no backdoors or rootkits like with
the larger companies, and it's available on pre-order today.

This is good for security-conscious people who believe in Free
Software, and want a system that they can trust. This includes
businesses, professionals, governments and any other application where
data privacy is a must. It's also good generally for those who wish to
use a system that respects their freedom.

Here it is (more information is on the page):
https://minifree.org/product/libreboot-x220/

This has positive implications for security in terms of auditability,
and therefore privacy in general (no backdoors!). It's also free
software friendly, so there are zero binary blobs and zero proprietary
software running on it in the OS or BIOS. You have all of the four
freedoms over each part of the boot process, which means that you the
user are in full control.

For the first time ever, it is possible for companies to use
libreboot-enabled hardware.

The Libreboot X220 is an upgrade from the existing Libreboot X200 that
was sold previously. Here are just some of the improvements with the X22
0:

* Has a touchpad and trackpoint mouse pointer. The X200 only had the
trackpoint

* Higher battery life

* SATA III support (6Gbps possible on SSD. The X200 can only do 3Gbps
SATA II)

* 2nd mSATA SSD possible in the 2nd mini PCI-E slot (mSATA drives not
yet sold by Minifree)

* much faster CPU (core i5/i7 on X220, core 2 duo on X200) *per CPU
core*, and has more CPU cores (X220 is quad-core, vs X200 which is
dual-core). This makes serious professional software development
possible, aswell as enabling all kinds of other high performance use
case scenarios which previously the libre software community had
fallen short on.

* LED backlit panel instead of CCFL (X200 uses CCFL). LED is more
reliable (lasts longer without dimming over time). Better
colour/contrast compared to X200. Brighter backlight.

* much faster video performance (Intel HD 3000 on X220, vs Intel GMA
4500MHD on X200)

* higher screen resolution (1366×768 on X220, vs 1280×800 on X200)

* DisplayPort digital video output built in (X200 only has VGA)

* supports more RAM (up to 16GiB, versus X200 which only supports 8GiB)

* current hardware. Moores law has slowed down in recent years; the X220
is roughly on par with performance standards for even the most
demanding of software developers. The X220 is a popular laptop for
hackers and professional users alike

* larger ESC key

* better CPU cooling (and more power-efficient CPU)

* USB 3.0 possible (with the Core i7 model. NOTE: untested)

* Better webcam (720p HD with a decent microphone, compared to X200
which has low resolution webcam) – NOTE: not all X220 laptops from
Minifree have webcams. If you want it, tell us and we’ll make sure to
ship one that has it.

Spread the word!

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

I would also like to point out that Timothy is a psychopath. The
reason I told him I couldn't pay the final 15k on the KCMA-D8 is
because I would have ended up *homeless* if I did. He told me he
didn't care, and that I didn't deserve a home or to eat properly. He
only cared about that 15k, despite the fact that I already paid the
full 75 for the D16 contract, and despite all the positive endorsement
and support that I gave TALOS on libreboot.org when that campaign was
still running.

I had every intention of paying Timothy that 15k, if I became able to.
But now that will not happen, as a result of what he has done and said
in the last 24 hours.

I'm perfectly happy for Raptor to publicly complain. This is only
fair, and they have the right. However, there are certain facts that I
would like to point out clearly for the community.

Fact 1: I paid 100% of the KGPE-D16 contract with was 75k USD I did
not pay the KCMA-D8 contract which was 15k. Timothy's email implies
that I barely paid any of it. The D8 was a mere extension on top of
the D16 and was a few weeks work for Timothy. The article also implies
that I was unwilling to pay the remaining 15k. I was actually *unable*
to pay. Big difference. I fully paid for the KGPE-D16 contract, and
D16 is all that Minifree sells. Most people don't use D8 and it wasn't
viable to sell. I would also like to point out that several
organisations now use the KGPE-D16 with libreboot. This includes the
Free Software Foundation, to host their websites. I personally
sacrificed a lot to pull that off. I find it deeply insulting that
Timothy causes all this fuss about the D8. The D8 port was also
missold to me. I was lead to believe that the hardware was readily
available when it wasn't (unlike D16 hardware), so the work for the D8
was more or less a waste of resources.

Fact 2: Libreboot is not a dead project. We are currently working on a
new release behind the scenes. We've merged an entirely new build
system that was written from scratch, to replace the old one (the one
that is "stagnant and hard to use" according to the article). It's in
the libreboot git repository as I speak, it was merged a few days ago.
Please mention this. The new build system is extremely modern,
flexible and easy to use. It adds many features which the old build
system lacked, such as (but certainly not limited to):
* easy ability to build and integrate linux kernel payloads (*hint*
petitboot *hint*)
* integrates all chromebook-related utils, for rockchip ARM chromebooks
* integrates chromeos flashrom, in addition to upstream flashrom
* generally better design, more modular, easier to maintain, easier to
build
* plus a whole host of other advantages
* about 10 new chromebooks have been added to libreboot. So much for
libreboot being dead, eh?

Please also mention that Libreboot is actually abandoning coreboot and
will be using Librecore as upstream. This will be covered in my
upcoming FOSDEM talk too. We have been quite public about this
already, on the Libreboot bug tracker.

I would also like to point out, that so far Raptor Engineering has not
fixed the bug on KGPE-D16 where above 128GiB RAM becomes unstable to
the point of being unusable. Only up to 128GiB works. This is less
than what the contract suggests. They also released source code that
was broken; memory initialization was broken on most memory modules.
It took 6 months after the initial release of the KGPE-D16 source code
for them to make memory initialization work, and even now raminit only
works with a few modules.

This is in addition to other bugs which they haven't fixed. I also
have IRC logs of private conversations between me and Timothy, where
he states that he's willing to let the free/libre hardware movement
crash and burn. This was before the dispute that happened yesterday
regarding payment.

Once again, you are painting the picture to be worse than it actually is

I paid you 75k USD for KGPE-D16, and didn't pay the 15k for KCMA-D8.

I would like to point out, that the price recently halved, compared to
the launch price. It is now at reasonable levels.

[coreboot] Minifree Libreboot D16 server/workstation launched

2016-12-30 Thread Leah Rowe
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

Hi all,

Minifree has launched a new freedom-friendly computer. Two, in fact.

Desktop/workstation version:
https://minifree.org/product/libreboot-d16/

Server version:
https://minifree.org/product/libreboot-d16-server/

This is a high-end AMD server platform, being sold in server and
extended ATX (desktop/workstation) form factor. It comes with Debian
and Libreboot preinstalled.

This is the first modern commercial system available today that can be
configured to run entirely free software; first Debian, the OS, and
then libreboot, a free/libre BIOS implementation. With Debian and
Libreboot, this is a fully free system containing zero binary blobs of
any kind.

This has positive implications for security in terms of audability,
and therefore privacy in general (no backdoors!). It's also free
software friendly, so there are zero binary blobs and zero proprietary
software running on it in the OS or BIOS. You have all of the four
freedoms over each part of the boot process, which means that you the
user are in full control.

For the first time ever, it is possible for companies to use
libreboot-enabled hardware.

The problem so far with Libreboot and Minifree is that it only
focussed on low-end hardware. The launch of the D16 Server and D16
Desktop changes that. With this hardware you can:

* do actual, serious work e.g. programming or 3D modeling. Software
development nowadays requires powerful computers, because software
becomes more complex. The sheer amount of time to build from source
can be a problem on its own. The D16 can support up to 16 fast AMD
Opteron cores per CPU, and 2 CPUs are possible so 32 cores in total.
This is ideal for software development.
* provide professional hosting services for paying clients, and run a
small ISP
* provide servers inside organisations
* play modern games (libre ones)
* etc (anything that requires a fast computer, basically)

Spread the word!

[coreboot] TALOS secure workstation campaign has launched

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA256

Hello everyone,

Here:
https://www.crowdsupply.com/raptor-computing-systems/talos-secure-workst
ation

This is a high-end desktop/workstation, on par with Intel in terms of
performance, and it's going to ship with entirely libre software on
it, including the boot firmware. From the factory, brand new.
Libreboot is going to support it, once it starts shipping (I'll be
working with Timothy Pearson, the engineer behind the TALOS project,
in my capacity as leader of the libreboot project).

Spread the word! This campaign needs to succeed.

[coreboot] FSF transgender discrimination anyone? GNU project refuses to let go of libreboot

2016-09-24 Thread Leah Rowe
Hi,

A week ago, libreboot left the GNU project because of transgender
discrimination at the Free Software Foundation.

GNU project has told me that they will not allow libreboot to leave GNU.
This is quite possibly the biggest insult imaginable, considering what
has happened.

This attitude within the GNU project is disgusting.

So the libreboot project hereby announces just how disgusting both the
GNU project and FSF are:

[coreboot] GNU Libreboot, version 20160907 released

2016-09-07 Thread Leah Rowe
l, instead of seeing 1970-01-01 when you boot (thanks to
Alexander Couzens from coreboot)

Build system now uses multiple CPU cores when building, speeding up
building for some people. Manually specifying how many cores are
needed is also possible, for those using the build system in a chroot
environment. (thanks go to Timothy Pearson from coreboot)

In the build system (git repository), https:// is now used when
cloning coreboot. http:// is used as a fallback for GRUB, if git:// fail
s.

New payload, the depthcharge bootloader (free bootloader maintained by
Google) for use on the ASUS Chromebook C201. (thanks go to Paul
Kocialkowski)

Various fixes to the ich9gen utility (e.g. flash component density is
now set correctly in the descriptor, gbe-less descriptors now supported)

The official documentation included in the release in provided in
texinfo format, instead of HTML; this was one of the requirements for
joining GNU. (the other requirement is a new build system, to comply
with GNU standards, e.g. Makefiles, and common Makefile entries
present in all GNU software. As of Libreboot 20160818, this new build
system is not yet merged, but will be in the release afterwards)
ChangeLog and NEWS files are included in the release, to comply with
GNU standards (they are dumps of the git-log output)
