A Lemmy community for Libreboot, the essential firmware for fully liberating your laptop!

Libreboot is a free (libre) BIOS/UEFI replacement. Based on coreboot, the aim is to distribute low-level boot firmware that is 100% free software, and easy to use.

Post questions, issues, victories, defeats and more here!

If you'd like to help me with (or fully take over) moderation, just let me know!

I got ver. 25.06 of Libreboot running on all three of my MacBooks. It was a fairly easy process, though I've kept Libreboot updated on them, and I think flashing Libreboot internally is easier after it's been done once.

I have Trisquel as the OS on all three.

I’ve got some old Macs around I forgot to sell. I didn’t realize Libreboot ran on Macs. I’ll have to give it a try.

It's the Macbook 1,1 and the Macbook 2,1 that will support Libreboot.
