manual: Add list of compatible computers.
In the GNU Boot 0.1 RC3 release, we already have images for various computers, so we use that as a base for the list of compatible computers. For computers supported by the same images like the ThinkPad X200, X200s and X200 Tablet, they have different markings on the computer so it's a good idea to treat them as separate computer models. Some users might also be used to projects (like Replicant) requiring very specific computer models, so following the trend probably helps users avoiding hardware not compatible with distributions they want to use. In addition, the installation instructions will also differ a lot between a ThinkPad X200 whose flash chip is easily accessible and the ThinkPad X200S which has a WSON-8 flash chip that doesn't have any clip available for it. We also list computers that have the RYF certification as separate computers as it will simplify things later on: so far we're aware that Minifree Ltd changed the flash chip size on many of the computers they sold and that that Technoetical provided modified GNU Boot images with the same MAC Address that is written down on some stickers on the bottom of the computer. Because of that installation instructions might differ between a ThinkPad X200 and a Technoetical X200.

However as GNU Boot is still relatively new, we lack installation and
|
||||
upgrade instructions for most of these computers.
|
||||
|
||||
Also not all are well tested, so it's a good idea to look on the GNU
|
||||
Boot website, on the status page (
|
||||
@url{https://www.gnu.org/software/gnuboot/web/status.html}) for up to
|
||||
date result of tests by GNU Boot users and contributors.
