      Yeah libreboot is the right coreboot distro, but meh I felt like letting others decide. I personally have my x220 with libreboot and Guix system

        It’s only VERIFIED to work on old stuff. But you can try. The idea of libreboot is having an unbloated bootloader that is easy to install without having to configure all the setuip yourself. Because of that the libreboot community only verifies it on old hardware or few hardware that the testers have.

          I mean, I’d like that, but what do you think are the chance the random motherboard in my PC isn’t going to get bricked by and the RAM, pcie 8x/8x bifurcation and srv-io are still going to work ?

            The most problematic is the stuff that is not standardized and the south-bridge of the chipset. You can always check on coreboot, they are not unbloated philosophy but you can try.
