The wiki is being retired!

Documentation is now handled by the same processes we use for code: Add something to the Documentation/ directory in the coreboot repo, and it will be rendered to https://doc.coreboot.org/. Contributions welcome!

This is work in progress!

There are a lot of (Free Software, as well as proprietary) firmware implementations available these days, which can be very confusing. This page tries to give an overview.

LinuxBIOS

FreeBIOS

This project is dead and was merged into LinuxBIOS. Use LinuxBIOS instead.

OpenBIOS

OpenFirmware

SmartFirmware

OpenBoot

U-Boot

EFI

UEFI

GNUFI
