I’m quite interested in putting coreboot onto my laptop, if that’s possible. But first I want to know if it’s reliable as I’ll be using this laptop for school, and if I can even do it in the first place.
I have an Acer Aspire A515-47, AMD Ryzen 5 5625U. I don’t know any detailed information about the motherboard, nor northbridge or southbridge. I did try to find them but I couldn’t find anything online. I mention these as they were mentioned on the coreboot docs.
Also from the docs, I’ll be doing the internal method as my laptop already, obviously, runs Linux (Fedora Silverblue).
So then how come Nova Custom do modern intel CPUs?
From the looks of it Coreboot just doesn’t support AMD.
In case you haven’t seen it already - 3mdeb shared some info on the state of things during last FOSDEM. If I’m not mistaken they also did an update the year before too.
