Brief board info
----------------
HP EliteBook 2560p is a 12.5" laptop you can read more about here:
<https://support.hp.com/us-en/product/hp-elitebook-2560p-notebook-pc/5071201>
Installation of Libreboot
-------------------------
You can actually just compile the Libreboot ROM for this, and flash the
entire ROM, then flash it. The *coreboot* project proper, has information
about this:
<https://doc.coreboot.org/mainboard/hp/2560p.html#programming>
Refer to the coreboot guide for flashing instructions, and you can build the
images for it in Libreboot like so:
./build roms hp2560p_8mb
2023-04-22 21:44:00 +00:00
More information about building ROM images can be found in
the [build guide](../build/).
This is a *Sandybridge* board which means that a neutered ME image is required
if you wish to flash the ME region. Libreboot's build system automatically
downloads, neuters (using `me_cleaner`) and inserts this if compiling from
source.
If you're using *Libreboot release* ROM images, the ME image has been scrubbed
and you must re-insert it. Use the information on this guide to know how
to do that:
[Insert vendor files on Intel Sandybridge/Ivybridge/Haswell
2023-04-22 21:44:00 +00:00
platforms](../install/ivy_has_common.md)
You may also wish to change the *default MAC address* if you're planning to
use the onboard Intel Gigabit Ethernet. You can do this using the information
in the same guide linked above, or read the nvmutil manual:
[Modify MAC addresses with nvmutil](../install/nvmutil.md).
