Stability:
----------
* Untested: The GNU Boot maintainers are not aware of anybody who
tested GNU Boot 0.1 RC5 on that computer. If you have GNU Boot on
this computer please report if it works or not (for instance by
opening a bug report).
* Fail: #<bug number>: Someone tested GNU Boot 0.1 RC5 on that
computer and it either doesn't boot at all, can't boot any fully
free GNU/Linux distribution. It should also be confirmed that this
is a software issue and not a problem with the hardware like broken
RAM modules. The issue should also be described in a bug report that
is available at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?<bug number>
(this is the GNU Boot bug tracker).
* Tested: Someone tested GNU Boot 0.1 RC5 on that computer and
reported to the GNU Boot that it at least booted fine.
* Daily users: Some people contacted the GNU Boot maintainers and
volunteered to send bug reports if installing GNU Boot made the
computer unusable or very hard to use (like a memory corruption that
makes it impossible to boot certain GNU/Linux distributions or
crashes the computer randomly). If you want to help GNU Boot
with that, please contact the maintainers through a bug report.

various fields.
GNU Boot 0.1 RC2 status
=======================
There are no changes affecting images between GNU Boot 0.1 RC2 and GNU
Boot 0.1 RC3 so it's not worth testing the RC2. It's better to test
the RC3 directly. Yet GNU Boot maintainers tested some computers on
the RC2 to reduce the risk of testers.

Coreboot status:
----------------
* Maintained / Unmaintained: GNU Boot depends on Coreboot to support
specific computers. So if Coreboot stops supporting a computer that
GNU Boot supports, then it will become harder and harder to support
that computer in GNU Boot over time and at some point GNU Boot will
likely stop supporting it unless someone adds back that computer in
Coreboot. And if a computer has no maintainer in Coreboot it
increases the likelihood that it will be removed at some point.
* Removed: Coreboot already removed the support for this computer.
* Similar to <another computer>: There is no official support for this
computer in Coreboot but using the code from the other computer
mentioned works.
Coreboot GPU driver:
--------------------
* old GPU driver / new GPU driver: Some computers uses an old GPU
driver written in C that could have some stability issues that were
fixed in the new GPU driver written in ADA. When the field is blank,
it means that we didn't look at which GPU driver was used or its
stability.

* The gnuboot-trisquel-grub.img file, which is produced by GNU Boot
and that is used during the automatic tests is reproducible. It can
be used as an example to make other components built with Guix
reproducible.
