@loftlifter31 where can I see a branch you work on?

[loftlifter31]

Work on? I'm building from master if that's your question.

Work on? I'm building from master if that's your question.

Where can I see your code as a branch?
Ideally do a WiP pull request on master, so that I can comment in code, just like all other community ports before se we can iterate on top. Board config, Linux config coreboot config that I will be able to review comparing other boards of same or similar family, nothing what is HCL, iGPU, dGPU and other things that could prevent booting or have console output

[loftlifter31]

I added pull request #1766 with all the config files.

I got it working. Just needed to update vbt.

I got it working. Just needed to update vbt.

Commented system76/firmware-open#575 which I guess is the issue you aimed to close, not this one.

To close this issue, #1774 is supposed to boot and work for others and yourself.

[loftlifter31]

This is the one I wanted to close. The issue was heads was not booting. Replacing the vbt solved the problem.

Where can we see a working branch booting galp5 @loftlifter31 ?
master...loftlifter31:heads:master doesn't contain chainges making galp5 bootable AFAIK?

[loftlifter31]

I updated the vbt. This will work now.

So far I can say the keyboard works, gpu works, and boot from usb works. I haven't tried enrolling any keys since I'm still building and flashing new roms.
