Hey Nico, Thank you for the info this is what I was looking for before starting on what looks like it might have been a futile task (for myself). I am sure I can find other machines that work just as well for my workload. My goal is to find a board that is not yet supported by coreboot as I

2018-12-11 Thread taii...@gmx.com
My issue is that my dual slot graphics card obstructs one of the PCI-e slots as it is too long to place in the first slot without colliding with one of the RAM slot retention tabs and I was wondering if there is a way to easily and without damaging anything remove the RAM lever tab and thus make
