have ordered a bunch of hp machines that coreboot supports (in gerrit, or master). i should have them next week. basically all *viable* ivybridge, sandybridge and haswell. been going through them all with @rikuv on irc
also riku added hp elitebook 2560p to libreboot - no docs yet, it's on todo, but see patch:
https://browse.libreboot.org/lbmk.git/commit/?id=5657c7d05b0b15dd01866999c9c868f8725b19a0
./build boot roms hp2560p_8mb
they're all going in the next libreboot release. plus a bunch of dells
i'm aiming for another libreboot testing release this month
@rikuv also look more closely at that patch
in upstream coreboot docs, it says grub hangs on those hp laptops (grub coreboot payload)
riku fixed it, by adding a 200ms timeout in grub's ps/2 init. see:
https://browse.libreboot.org/lbmk.git/diff/resources/grub/patches/0005-at-keyboard-timeout.patch?id=5657c7d05b0b15dd01866999c9c868f8725b19a0
i advised riku to submit this upstream to the gnu project and/or coreboot (on coreboot side, if not merged in grub upstream, hotpatch at build time)
libreboot has that patch now applied automatically when building grub
it might benefit other machines too (timeout code)
