To address these concerns, the GNU Project has developed GNU Boot,
a fully free distribution of firmware, including \textit{coreboot},
that aims to be entirely free by avoiding the use of proprietary
binary blobs. GNU Boot is committed to using only free software
binary blobs. \\

and is not very different from fully free GNU/Linux distributions like
