Corrections to r20140811 (5th beta) (11th August 2014)

  • Fixed typo where revision list for 5th beta was listed as March 11th 2014, when in fact it was August 11th 2014
  • Fixed incorrect grub.cfg that was actually placed in resources/grub/config/x60/grub_usqwerty.cfg which broke the default GRUB menu entry on X60

Revisions for r20140811 (5th beta) (11th August 2014)

  • build: added 'luks', 'lvm', 'cmosdump' and 'cmostest' to the list of modules for grub.elf
  • Documentation: added pics showing T60 unbricking (still need to write a tutorial)
  • build: include cmos.layout (coreboot/src/mainboard/manufacturer/model/cmos.layout) files in libreboot_bin
  • Documentation: added install/x60tablet_unbrick.html
  • Documentation: added install/t60_unbrick.html
  • Documentation: added install/t60_lcd_15.html
  • Documentation: added install/t60_security.html
  • Documentation: added install/t60_heatsink.html
  • Documentation: Renamed RELEASE.html to release.html
  • Documentation: removed pcmcia reference in x60_security.html (it's cardbus)
  • Documentation: added preliminary information about randomized seal (for physical intrusion detection) in x60_security.html and t60_security.html
  • Documentation: added preliminary information about preventing/mitigating cold-boot attack in x60_security.html and t60_security.html
  • Documentation: added info to #macbook21 warning about issues with macbook21
  • Documentation: X60/T60: added information about checking custom ROMs using dd to see whether or not the top 64K region is duplicated below top or not. Advise caution about this in the tutorial that deals with flashing on top of Lenovo BIOS, citing the correct dd commands necessary if it is confirmed that the ROM has not been applied with dd yet. (in the case that the user compiled their own ROMs from libreboot, without using the build scripts, or if they forgot to use dd, etc).
  • Split resources/libreboot/patch/gitdiff into separate patch files (getcb script updated to accomodate this change).
  • Re-added .git files to bucts
  • Fixed the oversight where macbook21_firstflash wasn't included in binary archives
  • Release archives are now compressed using .tar.xz for better compression
