coreboot 4.9 release notes
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
The 4.9 release is planned for November 2018
|
|
|
|
Update this document with changes that should be in the release
|
|
notes.
|
|
* Please use Markdown.
|
|
* See the [4.7](coreboot-4.7-relnotes.md) and [4.8](coreboot-4.8.1-relnotes.md)
|
|
release notes for the general format.

|
* The chip and board additions and removals will be updated right
