 Probably a good idea to use mainline libre-linux, but first want to
 make a diff file comparing their fork with libre to make sure their
 aren't any drivers which are libre that we might need (or any
 bug-fixes).

There is a deblob script used by Parabola Linux to liberate a mainline kernel. It is used to
create a libre-linux kernel from mainline.

just chiming in to clarify that Parabola actually uses Linux-libre as
provided by the FSFLA. they're the ones maintaining and running the
deblob script and we just grab their pre-cleaned sources. needless to
say, nothing prevents you or us from applying the script to linux
mainline ourselves.

i'm not familiar with Debian, but i've heard a number of times that
their kernel (and rest of the system indeed) is also equally clean by
default.
