Yes or No. Framework didn’t enable the Intel BootGuard for the 3 Laptops. However, I am not sure that is equivalent to being fully disabled. The Framework Support answered, "I can confirm that the three units provided didn't have Intel BootGuard enabled, however these were based on pre-production hardware designs.". > * Documentations: Is the current (not full) documentation without an > agreement good enough to port coreboot? I am not sure. The Framework Support didn’t answer this question. > Can individuals in the coreboot community access the full schematics and > board views with an agreement? No. The Framework Support answered, "We did not provide full schematics, as these are only provided - under NDA - to repair partners.". > I am also asking Matthew Garrett what is the current status of his porting > work by emailing him, introducing this ticket. So far I have not received his reply by email, while he is active on his Twitter. As I don't have my Twitter account and I don't want to have it, it's great if someone asks him. > As my next action, I will find a task driven bounty type OSS funding platform. This action above is pending or canceled status. ## Other notable information from Framework Support * "While aligned with our mission, coreboot is not something we are actively developing at this time." [1] * "Sorry we do not have additional responses for you at this time. If and when we actively develop coreboot in the future, we will announce and discuss this on our community.

Thank you for working to make coreboot work on Framework Laptop! This ticket is to track the task, as I didn't see any other issue tickets about Framework Laptop here. According to the Framework founder's comment[3] below, Framework provided Framework Laptops to the coreboot community. > We've handed three systems that can boot unsigned bootloaders to folks in the > coreboot community. Our plan in the near term is to help them create a shim > loader that can be signed to run on any Framework Laptop, which then enables > anyone to do further coreboot development. Then I saw Matthew's try to make the coreboot work on Framework Laptop,[4] but unfortunately it didn't work at that time.[5] How is the current status? What prevents coreboot from working on the Framework Laptop? How can we, people in the Framework community, help you? As a reference, there is a coreboot specific thread on the Framework community forum.[6] ## References * [1] https://frame.work/ * [2] Framework Computer - Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Framework_Computer * [3] Framework Laptop Mainboard, Hacker News, April 20, 2022 - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31097434 * [4] Matthew tries to port Coreboot to the Framework laptop - February 27, 2022 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jf_6xW-8tfQ * [5] Matthew Garrett on Twitter, February 27, 2022 - https://twitter.com/mjg59/status/1497788538212917250 * [6] Free the EC! and Coreboot Only - https://community.frame.work/t/free-the-ec-and-coreboot-only/791 ---Files-------------------------------- Emails_with_Framework_customer_support_about_coreboot.pdf (283 KB) -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
