All, Cisco Meraki are possibly the most FOSS hostile vendor I have ever had the displeasure of trying to pry GPL source code from. It took Meraki more than 12 months to provide the coreboot source code for the MX84 and MX250, and that occurred only after we (the hardware owners) lost patience and

replied to any of my follow up requests. As coreboot is GPL licensed software, I wanted to inform the coreboot community that I believe Cisco Meraki are not acting in good faith and are, in my opinion, violating the GPL by not providing the coreboot source code upon request. Kind regards, Hal Martin

Hi Nico and Julius, Thank you for the helpful tips. I will look into the fmd files in the tree and see if I can come up with something sensible for this board. I'll update you on any progress (or lack thereof). Cheers, Hal On Sat, May 19, 2018 at 4:57 PM, Nico Huber wrote: > Hi, > > On 19.05.
