Hello, anyone here has coreboot or any distribution like libreboot? I think of buying something compatible. I mainly make music in reaper with few plugins, browse internet, sometimes do graphic design and sometimes play left 4 dead 2 and games like that. I use artix linux. If you have done this could you share your experience? What to look for?

    I have old Thinkpad 230 with Coreboot. From the user’s point of view, when using the Linux distributions, I don’t feel any difference between Coreboot and a regular BIOS. Coreboot or Libreboot installation can sometimes be difficult, you may need a separate hardware programmer and it can be difficult to connect the wires to the contacts.
