Brief board info
|
|
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
HP EliteBook 2560p is a 12.5" laptop you can read more about here:
|
|
|
|
|
|

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:
|
|
|
|
|
2023-10-20 05:07:57 +00:00
|
|
|
./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).
