LibreBoot and Thinkpad

#1 Post by hasankamrul2097 » Sun Nov 06, 2016 10:51 am

I am thinking about buying a Thinkpad Laptop. I want to install ""LibreBoot"" into the machine.
In the present time few outdated laptop only has LibreBoot choice. I want to know what is the most stable and apparently good config among them.

core-i cpus don't support libreboot, so the newest thinkpads you can install it on are the T400/T500 and X200.

EDIT: Nevermind, I misunderstood your question, sorry.
Current Thinkpads: W530 (functional classic keyboard mod), X301, T61, T60, T43, T23, 600X, 770
Other: mk5 Toughbook cf-19, mk1 Toughbook cf-53

hello and welcome to the thinkpads forum..

as brchan said, your question is a bit confusing..

could you please be a little more clear..?

edit:
meanwhile, here is a link to libreboots web site and their compatibility list: https://libreboot.org/docs/hcl/

It is very simple to install Libreboot on the x60 and x60s.
