ok, thanks
ok, thanks
Yeah, that’s basically right. I believe flashprog is also included in libreboot, have a look in the elf/ directory. After that, it should work as expected
Thank you, kind person)) I installed it, but after installation my screen is too bright
and this happens every time, so for now I will use the latest test version, it works well.
I have another question, please tell me how, in your opinion, I can edit grub.cgf correctly so as not to get an error with searching for disk "ahci1"
I inserted these lines:
...........
echo # Insert newline
}
menuentry 'Load GNU/Linux-Libre (LTS)' {
cryptomount -a
set root='lvm/matrix-rootvol'
linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux-libre-lts root=/dev/mapper/matrix-rootvol cryptdevice=/dev/sda1:lvm
initrd /boot/initramfs-linux-libre-lts.img
}
menuentry 'Load Operating System (incl. fully encrypted disks) [o]' --hotkey='o' {
and deleted these ones since I don’t use raid
:
menuentry 'Load Operating System (incl. fully encrypted disks) [o]' --hotkey='o' {
if [ "${grub_scan_disk}" != "ata" ]; then
search_grub ahci
fi
if [ "${grub_scan_disk}" != "ahci" ]; then
search_grub ata
fi

raidvol="md/0 md/1 md/2 md/3 md/4 md/5 md/6 md/7 md/8 md/9"

for vol in ${lvmvol} ${raidvol} ; do
try_user_config "${vol}"
done
unset ahcidev
unset atadev
for i in 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0; do

fi
if [ "${grub_scan_disk}" != "ahci" ]; then

fi
done
done
set pager=0
echo -n "Attempting to unlock encrypted volumes"
for dev in ${ahcidev} ${atadev} ${lvmvol} ${raidvol}; do

I installed the updated version 20240612 everything worked as you said. Checking nothing as in the previous instructions does not give anything, as you wrote: after switching to the libre RAM initialization code mrc.bin no longer turns on
.
Now i need to edit grub.cfg
because I get an error with searching for the achi1 disk
$ ./build roms t440plibremrc_12mb
Thanks for your answer and help. I understand you correctly that after I executed the command
./build roms t440plibremrc_12mb
Then I can update my ROM (for example, I now have 2023.06.25) by running the commands:
iomem=relaxed
$ git clone https://github.com/SourceArcade/flashprog.git
$ cd flashprog
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ sudo flashprog -p internal
4 Flash
$ sudo flashprog -p internal -w seabios_withgrub_t440plibremrc_12mb_libgfxinit_corebootfb_ukqwerty_grubfirst.rom
And can I be sure that after turning on my computer I will see Grub Libreboot?
You wrote the correct command./build roms t440plibremrc_12mb
, but I want to understand how I can check the ROM before flashing the firmware, is everything okay, are the blobs embedded so that I can boot my laptop, this was the command before:
./cbfstool grub_t440pmrc_12mb_libgfxinit_corebootfb_usqwerty.rom print
Unfortunately, there is no answer to this question; the documentation and methods for installing Libreboot change very often.
That’s an oddly specific question. When else but now? Did you arrive by time machine?
Yes, I was looking for you and I want to take you to my planet called GnuBoot, will you come with me? ))
I’m not sure what you mean by “checking the ROM”…
Hello . I mean, how do I know that there are blob objects embedded in the ROM, without which my laptop won’t turn on, I mean mrc.bin
Previously I could check this using the command:
./cbfstool grub_t440pmrc_12mb_libgfxinit_corebootfb_usqwerty.rom print
Hello. Tell me please, your site in I2P is not working? I tried to go yesterday and it is not working
