Coreboot Buildroot
This repostory contains buildroot configurations, patches, and additions meant to build a useful linux+busybox distribution which can be embedded on the eeprom of ThinkPad X220/X230 machines running Coreboot.
It includes three different configuration: the default config coreboot_defconfig
, a minimal config coreboot_minimal_defconfig
which can fit on the X230 without hardware modifications (but lacks some extra goodies), and a grsec configuration for both of these.
Some of the coreboot utility (ie: cbfstool, ifdtool, and nvramtool) packages are built from a local source. you will need to edit this path in packages/coreboot/*/*.mk
