Information about each Libreboot release can be found
|
|
at [/docs/release.md](docs/release.md)
|
|
|
|
If you're more interested in libreboot development, go to the
|
|
[libreboot development page](../git.md), which also includes links to the
|
|
Git repositories. The page on [/docs/maintain/](docs/maintain/) describes how
|
|
Libreboot is put together, and how to maintain it. If you wish to build
|
|
Libreboot from source, [read this page](docs/build/).

GPG signing key
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
{.imgright}
|
|
|
|
Releases are signed with GPG.
|
|
|
|
gpg --recv-keys 0x969A979505E8C5B2
|
|
|
|
Full key fingerprint: CDC9 CAE3 2CB4 B7FC 84FD C804 969A 9795 05E8 C5B2
|
|
|
|
The GPG key can also be downloaded with this exported dump of the
|
|
pubkey: [lbkey.asc](lbkey.asc).

Git repository
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Links to regular release archives are listed on this page.
|
|
|
|
However, for the absolute most bleeding edge up-to-date version of Libreboot,
|
|
there is a Git repository that you can download from. Go here:

HTTPS mirrors {#https}
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
{.imgright}
|
|
|
|
These mirrors are recommended, since they use TLS (https://) encryption.
|
|
|
|
You can download Libreboot from these mirrors:
|
|
|
|
* <https://rsync.libreboot.org/> (Libreboot project official mirror, UK)
|
|
* <https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/libreboot.org/release/> (University
|
|
of Kent, UK)

RSYNC mirrors {#rsync}
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
{.imgright}
|
|
|
|
Useful for mirroring Libreboot's entire set of release archives. You can put
|
|
an rsync command into crontab and pull the files into a directory on your
|
|
web server.
|
|
|
|
*It is highly recommended that you use the libreboot.org mirror*, if you wish
|
|
to host an official mirror. Otherwise, if you simply want to create your own
|
|
local mirror, you should use one of the other mirrors, which sync from
|
|
libreboot.org.
|
|
|
|
Before you create the mirror, make a directory on your web server. For
|
|
example:
|
|
|
|
mkdir /var/www/html/libreboot/
|
|
|
|
Now you can run rsync, for instance:
|
|
|
|
rsync -avz --delete-after rsync://rsync.libreboot.org/mirrormirror/ /var/www/html/libreboot/
|
|
|
|
**It's extremely important to have the final forward slash (/) at the end of each path,
|
|
in the above rsync command. Otherwise, rsync will behave very strangely.**
|
|
|
|
If you wish to regularly keep your rsync mirror updated, you can add it to a
|
|
crontab. This page tells you how to use crontab:
|
|
<https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/crontab.5.html>
|
|
|
|
The following rsync mirrors are available:
|
|
|
|
* <rsync://rsync.libreboot.org/mirrormirror/> (Libreboot project official mirror)
|
|
* <rsync://rsync.mirrorservice.org/libreboot.org/release/> (University of Kent,
|
|
UK)
|
|
* <rsync://mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/libreboot/> (Princeton university, USA)
|
|
* <rsync://qorg11.net/mirrors/libreboot/> (qorg11.net, Spain)
|
|
* <rsync://ftp.linux.ro/libreboot/> (linux.ro, Romania)
|
|
* <rsync://mirror.koddos.net/libreboot/> (koddos.net, Netherlands)
|
|
* <rsync://mirror-hk.koddos.net/libreboot/> (koddos.net, Hong Kong)
|
|
|
|
Are you running a mirror? Contact the libreboot project, and the link will be
|
|
added to this page!
|
|
|
|
You can make your rsync mirror available via your web server, and also configure
|
|
your *own* mirror to be accessible via rsync. There are many resources online
|
|
that show you how to set up an rsync server.
|
|
|
|
HTTP mirrors {#http}
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
{.imgright}
|
|
|
|
WARNING: these mirrors are non-HTTPS which means that they are
|
|
unencrypted. Your traffic could be subject to interference by
|
|
adversaries. Make especially sure to check the GPG signatures, assuming
|
|
that you have the right key. Of course, you should do this anyway, even
|
|
if using HTTPS.

FTP mirrors {#ftp}
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
WARNING: FTP is also unencrypted, like HTTP. The same risks are present.

Statically linked
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Libreboot includes statically linked executables in some releases, built from
|
|
the available source code. Those executables have certain libraries built into
|
|
them, so that the executables will work on many GNU+Linux distros.
|
|
|
|
Libreboot 20160907 was built in Trisquel GNU+Linux, version 7.0 64-bit.
|
|
Some older Libreboot releases will have been built in Trisquel 6.0.1.
|
|
|
|
To comply with GNU GPL v2, Trisquel 6 and 7 source ISOs are supplied by the
|
|
Libreboot project. You can find these source ISOs in the `ccsource` directory
|
|
on the `rsync` mirrors.
|
|
|
|
Libreboot releases past version 20160907 do not distribute statically linked
|
|
binaries. Instead, these releases are source-only, besides pre-compiled ROM
|
|
images for which the regular Libreboot source code archives suffice. These newer
|
|
releases instead automate the installation of build dependencies, with instructions
|
|
in the documentation for building various utilities from source.
|
|
|
|
These executables are utilities such as `flashrom`.
