Libreboot is a free software project, aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS firmware found in most computers with a libre, lightweight system designed to perform only the minimum number of tasks necessary to load and run a modern 32-bit or 64-bit operating system. Libreboot was established as a distribution of coreboot without proprietary binary blobs.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Libreboot )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Libreboot )〕 Libreboot is not a straight fork of coreboot; instead, it is a parallel effort that works closely with and re-bases every so often on the latest coreboot as the upstream supplier, with patches merged upstream whenever possible. In addition to removing proprietary software, libreboot also attempts to make coreboot easy to use by automating the build and installation processes. Endorsed by the Free Software Foundation (FSF),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Campaign for Free BIOS — Free Software Foundation — working together for free software )〕 the Libreboot project made possible the required modifications for completely libre variants of some ThinkPad and MacBook laptops.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Hardware compatibility list )〕 According to its own documentation, it can work with any Linux distribution that uses kernel mode setting (KMS) for the graphics, while Windows is not supported and its use is discouraged by Libreboot. ==Supported systems== Libreboot supports the following systems:〔 * Asus KFSN4-DRE server/workstation board * Asus Chromebook C201 * Lenovo ThinkPad X60/X60s * Lenovo ThinkPad X60 Tablet * Lenovo ThinkPad T60 (some exceptions) * Lenovo ThinkPad X200 * Lenovo ThinkPad R400 * Lenovo ThinkPad T400 * Lenovo ThinkPad T500 * Apple MacBook1,1 * Apple MacBook2,1 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Libreboot」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
