<h2>Releases</h2>
<ul>
<li><a href="#release6">6th release</a> (2014 September 11th <b>pre-release, 7th beta</b>) (see <a href="#critical_tasks">critical</a> and <a href="#noncritical_tasks">non-critical</a> tasks)</h1>
<li><a href="#release5">5th release</a> (2014 March 7th, revised 2014 June 22nd)</h1>
<li><a href="#release4">4th release</a> (2014 February 21st)</h1>
<li><a href="#release3">3rd release</a> (2013 December 14th)</h1>

<li><a href="#release1">1st release</a> (2013 December 12th)</h1>
</ul>
<p>
<b><i>"Release"</i></b> means that a new coreboot git revision with substantially different code has been adapted for libreboot.
</p>
<p>
<b><i>"Revision"</i></b> means a modification to an existing release, where the result is insubstantially different from what preceded it.
</p>
<p>
The 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th releases were really just older revisions of the 5th release.
For historical reasons (and to avoid confusion), these are still called 'releases' instead of correcting the mistake.

</li>
<li>
Added 'flash' script (make sure to run builddeps-flashrom first) which (while libreboot is already running) can use flashrom to flash a ROM
<ul>
<li>eg: "sudo ./flash bin/x60/coreboot_serial_ukdvorak.rom" equivalent to "sudo ./flashrom/flashrom -p internal -w bin/x60/coreboot_uk_dvorak.rom"</li>
<li>updated 'build' script to include the 'flash' script in libreboot_bin.tar.gz</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Documentation: replaced default flashrom tutorial to recommend the 'flash' script instead.</li>
<li>
Re-add cbfstool source code back into libreboot_bin.tar.gz, as cbfstool_standalone
<ul>
<li>Patched that version to work (able to be built and used) without requiring the entire coreboot source code.</li>
<li>
Created patched version of the relevant source files and added it into resources/cbfstool/patch
<ul>
<li>see coreboot/util/cbfstool/rmodule.c and then the patched version in resources/cbfstool/patch/rmodule.c</li>
<li>see coreboot/src/include/rmodule-defs.h and the rule in 'build' for including this in ../libreboot_bin/cbfstool_standalone</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Added instructions to 'build' script for applying this patch to the cbfstool_standalone source in libreboot_bin</li>
<li>Added instructions to 'build' script for then re-compiling cbfstool_standalone in libreboot_bin after applying the patch</li>
<li>Added a 'builddeps-cbfstool' script (in src, but only used in bin and put in bin by 'build') that compiles cbfstool_standalone in libreboot_bin (make), moves the cbfstool and rmodtool binaries into libreboot_bin/ and then does 'make clean' in libreboot_bin/cbfstool_standalone</li>
<li>Updated the 'build' script to put 'builddeps-cbfstool' in libreboot_bin</li>
<li>Updated the 'build' script in the cbfstool (standalone) part to accomodate the above.</li>
<li>Documentation: added notes about cbfstool (standalone) in libreboot_bin</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>it's FRU P/N 41W1478 (on T60 14.1") so this was added to the docs.</li>
<li>it's P/N 42T0078 FRU 42T0079 or P/N 41W1338 (on T60 15.1") so this was added to the docs.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Documentation: added information about names of LCD panels for T60 to the relevant parts of the documentation.</li>
<li>Documentation: added information (with pictures) about the differences between T60 with Intel GPU and T60 with ATI GPU.</li>
<li>Documentation: added pictures of keyboard layouts (US/UK Qwerty/Dvorak) to the ROM list, to let the user compare with their own keyboard.</li>
<li>

</p>
<h2>Development notes</h2>
<ul>
<li>
Binary archive now have 2 images:
<ul>
<li>With serial output enabled and memtest86+ included (debug level 8 in coreboot)</li>
<li>With serial output disabled and memtest86+ excluded (faster boot speeds) (debugging disabled)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Reduced impact on battery life:
<ul>
<li>'processor.max_cstate=2' instead of 'idle=halt' for booting default kernel</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
coreboot.rom (faster boot speeds, debugging disabled):
<ul>
<li>Disabled coreboot serial output (Console-> in "make menuconfig")</li>
<li>Set coreboot debug level to 0 instead of 8 (Console-> in "make menuconfig")</li>
<li>Changed GRUB timeout to 1 second instead of 2 (in grub.cfg</li>
<li>Removed background image in GRUB.</li>
<li>Removed memtest86+ payload (since it relies on serial output)
</ul>
</li>
<li>
coreboot_serial.rom (slower boot speeds, debugging enabled):
<ul>
<li>Boot time still reduced, but only by ~2 seconds</li>
<li>has the memtest86+ payload included in the ROM</li>
<li>has serial port enabled. How this is achieved (from X60_source): Turn on debugging level to 8, and enable serial output</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>(in Console-> in coreboot "make menuconfig")</li>
<li>(and build with grub_serial.cfg and grub_memdisk_serial.cfg)</li>

<li>ThinkPad X60</li>
<li>ThinkPad X60s</li>

</ul>
<h2>Development notes</h2>
<ul>
<li>Removed SeaBIOS (redundant)</li>
<li>
New GRUB version (2.02~beta2)
<ul>
<li>Fixes some USB issues</li>
<li>Includes ISOLINUX/SYSLINUX parser</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>New grub.cfg</li>
<li>
Removed useless options:
<ul>
<li>options for booting sda 2/3/4</li>
<li>seabios boot option</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
Added new menu entries:
<ul>
<li>Parse ISOLINUX config (USB)</li>
<li>Parse ISOLINUX config (CD)</li>
<li>Added 'cat' module for use on GRUB command line.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>"set pager=1" is set in grub.cfg, for less-like functionality</li>
</ul>
<p>
The "Parse" options read ./isolinux/isolinux.cfg on a CD or USB,
and automatically converts it to a grub config and switches to the boot menu of that distro.
This makes booting ISO's *much* easier than before.
