I want to make a "free computer". I want to flash Libreboot now. I'm compiling it now. My device is unsupported but I want try to port it. But which files I need to modify.
Device: SAMSUNG RV508 with changed keyboard
Second question:
Do I need to write firmwares to touchpad or mouse? Or this devices works without firmwares?

About my project: I want to make my laptop fully free.
P. S. If my project will success, how to send files to Stallman?
P. P. S. What is this "fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /home/myuser)
Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set)."?

My BIOS idea: FLBIOS (Free/Libre BIOS). And what about BIOS encryption using key/keyfile? Small part must be unencrypted (for requesting key and unencrypting data).
Command line example:
FLBIOS v1.0
Checking hardware…
Sending freedomtest command to hardware…
CRITICAL: No response from HDD. Non-free firmware or freedomtest not implemented.
OK.
Boot GRUB (Y/n)? n
freedom@flbios / $ bootdevice /dev/sr0
CRITICAL: Non-free device. Boot anyway (Y/n)? y
FATAL: Non-free files detected.
freedom@flbios / $ sudo poweroff
BIOS password:
* Will now halt

Microsoft troll or 10 years old guy.
Really are Libreboot docs useless for you?

Interesting information Magic Banana. I am always suspicious about things too advanced- big corporations have unjust advancement over the client, and I honestly don't trust them. So I keep it simple, at least at a level that I can control and/or understand/manage. That's way I use old laptops. My emachines e620 is so wonderful!!! All I need is study, learn, program, read and surf (securely) in the web... It feats me perfectly!
