Hi Piotr, Unfortunately its not possible to boot freebsd with the libreboot images due to libreboot not have a binary blob vga bios & seabios payload. You should be able to run freebsd without issue using coreboot however (libreboot is a consumer of coreboot which produces images without any close components). I've managed to reflash a stock x60s with coreboot & run net/free & dragonflybsd on there. I don't believer the laptops are modified physically in anyway & just have their bios reflashed, might be worth asking them if you can get a laptop with coreboot+vgabios+seabios. Alternatively, just get a thinkpad x200 & diy. You may have to resort to using linux for the initial flash. If it goes wrong & provided you made backup images before starting, you can recover without issue using a raspberry pi or a beaglebone black as your reprogrammer & the flashrom utility. Dmesg of the x60s running coreboot is on the wiki & freebsd-acpi_at_ Regards Sevan / Venture37Received on Sun Mar 29 2015 - 11:01:32 UTC
