Today’s Libreboot 26.01 RC1 revision is a testing release, whereas the previous stable release was Libreboot 20241206. This revised release log lists all changes as of today, 25 December 2025, since the Libreboot 20241206 release of December 2024.

You can find today’s release in https://rsync.libreboot.org/testing/26.01rc1/ or you can use one of the mirrors.

This is the first Release Candidate (RC1) in the Libreboot 26.01 release series, codenamed “Tenacious Tomato”. It is expected that new RCs will be issued weekly, between now and the time of the full release.

PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE INSTALLING, OR YOU MAY BRICK YOUR MACHINE!! - Please click the link and follow the instructions there, before flashing. For posterity, here is the link again.

Libreboot is a free/open source BIOS/UEFI replacement on x86 and ARM, providing boot firmware that initialises the hardware in your computer, to then load an operating system (e.g. Linux/BSD). It is specifically a coreboot distribution, in the same way that Debian is a Linux distribution. It provides an automated build system to produce coreboot ROM images with a variety of payloads such as GRUB or SeaBIOS, with regular well-tested releases to make coreboot as easy to use as possible for non-technical users. From a project management perspective, this works in exactly the same way as a Linux distro, providing a source-based package manager (called lbmk) which patches sources and compiles coreboot images. It makes use of coreboot for hardware initialisation, and then a payload such as SeaBIOS or GRUB to boot your operating system; on ARM(chromebooks) and certain x86 mainboards, we provide U-Boot (as a coreboot payload), which provides a lightweight UEFI implementation..

As stated above, the following boards have been added:

• HP Pro 3500 Series (board port by Vesek)
• Topton XE2 N150 (board port by Riku Viitanen)
• ThinkPad T580 (board port by Johann C. Rode).

More boards are planned, for the final release in late January 2026. Boards will be added when feasible, in each new RC.

Work is ongoing to integrate Google Chromebooks, by integrating the MrChromebox distribution of coreboot into Libreboot’s build system.

TODO: Only include the latest rev updates. Don’t mention earlier duplicates, unless there’s something special about them.

In descending order from latest changes to earliest changes:

• Updated PCSX-Redux to rev b745534eb231d3699ec57949f16a9a7bd5b79385, which contains various bug fixes and feature improvements.
• Updated flashprog to revision ffcf92fb.
• Updated GRUB to revision 25b7f6b93 from December 2025. This is a little bit after 2.14-rc1 and adds a lot of bug fixes and new features. For example, the PHC argon2 implementation could be dropped because GRUB now imports a newer version of libgcrypt, which supports argon2. Other improvements as well, such as a general support for more ciphers, or support for things like BLS and UKIs; BLS and UKIs are untested in the the 26.01 release, but there is no reason in principle why they shouldn’t work..
• Updated deguard to the latest revision, which adds files for the other recently added Kabylake ThinkPads e.g. ThinkPad X280, T580, T470s.
• coreboot/default: Update to revision def7aa7094 from December 2025.
• coreboot/default: rev 9e41c7cec7, 18 July 2025. NOTE: later updated again, before RC
• pcsx-redux: bump rev 8f8cc3d5, 20 June 2025. NOTE: later updated again, before RC.
• coreboot/default: bump rev 812d0e2f62, 5 Apr 2025. NOTE: later updated again before the RC.
• deguard: bump to rev 0ed3e4f. NOTE: Later updated again before RC.
• GRUB: Bump to a68a7dece, 23 June 2025. NOTE: Later updated again to a December 2025 release before this RC was built.
• SeaBIOS: Update to rev b686f460, June 2025. NOTE: This was updated again to a December 2025 revision, just before this RC release.

TODO write this section.

In descending order from latest changes to earliest changes:

• All of lbmk: Reduced use of eval statements; eval much be used with care, in sh, and avoided if possible, because it can very easily allow code injection vulnerabilities if handled carelessly. Even if the code is currently correct, mistakes could be made in the future, and it’s unknown what person might touch your code in the future. It’s always better to just assume the worst. There were no actual known bugs caused by eval, because Libreboot has an extremely sensible and conservative build system design.

In descending order from latest changes to earliest changes:

• ThinkPad T480/s: Add ThunderBolt PCI-E support.
• ThinkPad T480/s: fix headphone jack detection. You previously had to switch the port manually, using a program such as pavucontrol. This is now fixed, in
• Initial work on a script (chromebook.html) to support Google Chromebooks, by importing (and adapting) configs from the MrChromebox coreboot distribution into Libreboot’s build system. This feature is intended for completion by the time of the full Libreboot 26.01 release, but it was still work in progress on the initial 26.01 RC1.
• Depending on the context, this may also be regarded as a bug fix: in get.sh, the git remote caching was re-implemented in such a way that the cached path corresponds directly to the URL where the code was hosted. This is done not only per-project, but per remote in each project; we have backup remotes for each project. In this way, the caching is much more reliable, because we no longer store multiple remotes in a single Git repository. This also allows us to use a diverging fork of a project, so long as the target revision exists in both trees. This is a prerequisite step before implementing support for more than two remotes per project, which will be used in the future to support multiple different forks of coreboot, without needing to write a lot of bloated custom code for what are essentially the same projects (from Libreboot’s perspective).
• init.sh: Only ever create the cache/ directory here, because we previously created it elsewhere. We must ensure that we always have reliable and centralised handling of certain critical directories.
  
• Don’t compress the Alderlake-N FSP on the Topton XE2 N150 mainboard. This is necessary for reliable insertion on release images.
• Use sha512sum from sbase, instead of relying on the host implementation. This increases reliability by virtue of increased consistency. The --status flag is no longer used, because this is specific only to the GNU implementation of sha512sum. Sbase source code is preserved, by building a temporary copy of it and then placing the binaries out of tree. (out of source builds)
• Imported the suckless sbase project into Libreboot’s build system, for reliably consistent functionality in the sha512sum command. This could be used for other commands in the future (sbase implements an entire Unix userland comparable to e.g. coreutils, but the code is much cleaner and extremely reliable).
• get.sh: Support -F flag which always pulls down new code from a given upstream, even if the target revision is already cached locally. This is useful if you want to use the cache for something else, externally to lbmk. This is used during development, when updating code revisions, otherwise you would have to use the cache manually. By using it via lbmk, we can ensure more reliable operation in a way that reduces the risk of build system corruption via stale artifacts (though in practise, there will usually be a backup repository anyway, if something is wrong with the main one as lbmk is designed with a lot of redundancy).
• rom.sh: support fspgop init mode - really doesn’t matter, for the user’s perspective this is similar to using libgfxinit and works similarly, in payloads like SeaBIOS and GRUB. By “support”, I mean that lbmk will not put libgfxinit in the file name for these images.
• Added a -p flag to me_cleaner, on all versions used. You can set the variable MEclean="y" in the config for a given board under config/vendor/, and me_cleaner will then avoid modifying the ME. The ME cleaner is still used for bruteforce ME extraction, but the -p option will specifically avoid erroring out even if there is an error with FPTR checks. This was necessary for the Topton XE1 N150, where we simply set the HAP (ME Disable) bit in the IFD, but we don’t touch me.bin itself. This is a simple and powerful way to handle newer Intel ME images without increasing the complexity of Libreboot’s build system design.
• Build system: We now build libarchive, for use of bsdtar and others, in a few places. This is part of a general desire to phase out e.g. 7z, unar etc, over time, since bsdtar supports nearly everything. Some work still needs doing to fully get rid of unar, because the KBC1126 EC firmware files still only work with unar at the moment.
• init.sh: TMPDIR is now a directory inside the build system work directory, instead of /tmp. This eliminates the risk that the user may have a tmpfs for /tmp; because we had to assume this was the case, this limited the amount of data we could safely write inside TMPDIR. Of course, it’s still good to be frugal with use of TMPDIR regardless, but this is just another example of build system reliability improvements.
• release.sh: Removed support for the -d flag, which allowed one to create a custom path for release files to be made available. We don’t really need it, and the error handling for such a feature needs to be quite complex. This was part of a general effort to clean up and simplify the build system.
• cache coreboot builds in elf/ again - because of the change shown below, we can once again do this safely, since they are deleted as needed. Images are padded to avoid use, wherein the padding is only removed in versions that have the payloads added (this is for installation safety).
• include/tree.sh: delete individual target builds if needed. This is possible now, because target builds go in subdirectories under a directory for the entire tree. Now when you change a target config, it gets rebuilt automatically, but without needing to delete the entire tree (this could be considered a bug fix, as this was a previous lbmk design flaw, now corrected).

In descending order from the latest changes to the earliest changes:

• GRUB modules: Enable useof the ciphers in GRUB, e.g. blake. This is part of GRUB’s recent update to a more modern version of libgcrypt.
• coreboot/default: Use the cmocka coreboot submodule, by default. This is used for various tests, but coreboot’s default behaviour is to try using the host’s version of cmocka. This is not ideal, because it means that such functionality is inconsistent; the argument against doing so is the same one that generally lead to the introduction of crossgcc. Therefore, coreboot’s build system is modified to make it use its own specific version of cmocka by default. The operator can still override this by configuration, so no functioality was last.
• GRUB: Add keyboard layout for Norway.
• Coreboot: For main targets, use the Github backup mirror by default, instead of Coreboot’s main clone URL. This is done as a courtesy, to reduce the load on coreboot’s servers.
• Add configuration for installing build dependencies in Fedora 43.
• Kabylake coreboot mainboards: don’t hardcode power_on_after_fail. Use the CBFS-based backend implemented by Nicholas Chin.
• Added support for SMBIOS type 16/17 in Haswell Native RAM initialisation, courtesy of Ron Nazarov who submitted a patch to coreboot; the patch was later improved upon by Angel Pons and included in Libreboot as a part of a general revision update.
• grub/xhci: Rename to grub/xhci_nvme, to make it clear that this tree has both patchsets. Some users were confused thinking the xhci branch does not contain NVMe drivers, even though it does!
• Make U-Boot rainbow again.
• vendor.sh: Usebsdunzip, rather than host unzip. This provides more consistent functionality, and compliments a previous decision to also use bsdtar; Libreboot compiles its own copy of libarchive at runtime, thereby providing each user with consistent functionality.`
• GRU bob/kevin chromebooks: Make the U-Boot bootflow menu timeout by eight seconds instead of thirty; thirty feels like too much. Eight seconds is about right, giving ample time for the user to interact, while also speeding up unattended (re-)booting.
• Used cached Git repositories when cloning inside release work directories, to speed up the build time.
• coreboot: Added a ThinkPad T440p target that has a 4MB CBFS area. This is for recovery purposes, because it’s easier to flash just the 2nd chip with this 4MB image. It is still recommended that the user makes use of the full image. Flashing the first chip is also required for neutering Intel ME; the 4MB image still has Intel ME inserted in the same way.
• config: Updated the Arch Linux dependencies, because the unifont package has since been split into multiple packages. We install what we need.
• include/tree.sh: Place target builds under tree/target/ - this makes it easier to handle deletions, when project files change, because they’re all subdirectories under the elf directory for the entire tree, of a given upstream project.
• include/rom.sh: bump pcsx-redux copyright date to 2025. This is because new changes from 2025 were imported when the PCSX-Redux Open BIOS was updated.
• HP Pro 3500: enlarge CBFS to match the BIOS region
• HP Pro 3500: Use a truncated ME by default. The original port (to Libreboot) used me_cleaner, but did not truncate the ME region and enlarge the BIOS region. This has now been done, as it leaves more space in CBFS for additional user-supplied coreboot payloads.
• HP Pro 3500: Unlock all flash regions by default. In practise, coreboot always does this anyway (unless you tell it not to). It is nonetheless a requirement for the default Libreboot setup.
• HP Pro 3500: set the HAP bit by default. In practise, coreboot disables Intel ME via Soft ME Disable, but the original port (to Libreboot) did not set the HAP bit; doing so is required, when feasible, on a given board.
• HP Pro 3500: Use SeaGRUB as the payload, not GRUBSea (start SeaBIOS first), as this is standard behaviour in Libreboot. The original addition of this port (to Libreboot) used GRUBSea.

This combines both build system fixes, and changes to upstream sources (e.g. coreboot and various payloads like SeaBIOS/GRUB, utilities like flashprog, and so on).

The following bug fixes have been merged (in descending order from the latest changes to the earliest changes):

• init.sh: Explicitly export C.UTF-8 as the system locale, rather than just C. This is more standard, and fixes a few minor build issues, for example in the GRUB project.
• coreboot: Disable early thermal shutdown on Dell Latitude laptops, courtesy of Nicholas Chin. These computers would previously shut down after the CPU reached 87c; with this fix from Nicholas, normal CPU throttling methods are used (allowing higher temperatures in a way that is still safe.
• get.sh: Return from clone_project if multi-tree, to fix a previous bug; previously, both single- and multi-tre ewould be handled by this function, with hacks that were quite buggy. Now the difference between the two is handled much more robustly.
• get.sh: Always assume that loc is not empty. We previously had a bug where sometimes for example, the backup remote on a given project was stored in the same location as for main. This was a relic/regression arising after the design change whereby separate clones are created for each remote, rather than handling multiple remotes in the same project clone.
• get.sh: Use --keep-cr in git am commands, for compatibility with code repositories that use CR-LF line endings. This is true of edk2, which I am working on integrating into Libreboot for certain boards.
• get.sh: Use git show instead of git whatchanged, for checking if a revision exists in cache/; the whatchanged command was deprecated, and now results in an error state (by default, unless changed by the user) if used on a modern version of Git.
• get.sh: only pull code down if a given revision is not cached locally; this fixes the issue where bandwidth would otherwise be wasted needlessly. This is part of a general effort to make the build system more efficient, especially the parts that deal with the internet.
• vendor.sh: Remove false error message about bad hashes when cycling through extracted files in mkdst; the way it works often is lots of files are extracted, but the final file is of a certain hash, that will be checked. If a correct file is found, the build system may still have told the user about invalid checksums on other files, leading them to think that the extraction failed. This situation is therefore avoided, with what to output being decided only once it is certain whether the extraction has failed.
• inject.sh: Don’t directly exit from patch_release, because lbmk’s policy requires that only the main function in mk shall exit; everything else falls back to mk. In this way, we can (and we do) have centralised handling of temporary files, and their subsequent cleanup on exit from the build system.
• init.sh: Create TMPDIR after suid check, otherwise it might be created as root, which would disable lbmk in a way not obvious to the user, for the very reason that lbmk prevents most tasks from being run as root. This is for security reasons.
• vendor.sh: Add missing error handly for sha512sum commands; it was already handled, but the output is directed to a file. The x_ function is now used when calling sha512sum, for stricter error exits.
• vendor.sh: Clean out the 7ztest directory in startup. Otherwise, some old files might still be there, which could lead to incorrect results. Output files are hashed now, so it’s probably not a problem, but this is nevertheless a preventative bug fix, as an early warning against possible bugs that may be introduced later. (this is why xbmk hashes everything)
• init.sh: Write-protect the lock for on startup of the build system. It is deleted when the main parent instance exits. This may also be considered a general bug fix, but not really, because it doesn’t fix the problem that the lock file could be removed by someone/something else. However, by setting chmod -w on it at runtime, it reduces the chance of accidental deletions, including by (for example) programmers errors in lbmk! So this is more of a preventative bug fix.
• release.sh: Delete the xbmkwd directory inside source tarballs. We previously caused an empty one to be present there; not really a problem, but it is unintentional and undesired behaviour.
• init.sh: Bail if date is a non-GNU implementation, because we currently rely on use of GNU-specific features in date, for initialisation of Git when working from release archives.
• init.sh: Added proper input sanitization to the version strings, because these are essentially user-inputted (it’s based on use of git tag). This is to prevent certain as-yet undefined vulnerabilities e.g. code injection.
• mk (main script): hardened PWD checks - deny use of symlinks to the main script. This is extremely important, due to the design of xbmk; it assumes that the work directory is always the same place that mk is. We could have complicated and error-prone logic to cd inside of a subshell, but that would just be bloat.
• get.sh: Temporary directories for clones are now placed properly inside of TMPDIR, which (with use of mktemp) greatly reduces the chance of race conditions, if the same directory was to be used by multiple instances all at once.
• lib.sh and rom.sh: Much stricter error handling for mktemp.
• inject/vendor.sh: Much stricter use of set + - we use set +u +e in certain functions, when we need to have looser error handling in the built-in shell (we still carefully handle error conditions even then). The previous code was far too lax about how this is done. In general, we want error handling to be stricter when feasible.
• init.sh: Fixed a few race conditions with TMPDIR, by effectively eliminating the change that more than one instance of a given copy of the build system is actually running at any given time.
• init.sh: Fix safety issues in TMPDIR handling. We used to check whether the build system was running a child instance, based on initialisation of TMPDIR, but this is inherently unreliable. Instead, child instances are now detected by the presence of a lock file, and this lock file contains the path written to TMPDIR; if they don’t match, or there is none, then we know the build system is running in its main parent process; and of course, the presence of a lock file will make a new parent process exit, to prevent corruption.
• Dependencies: for Debian-based distros, --no-install-recommends is now used. This prevents a lot of unnecessary dependencies being installed, so that we don’t waste as much disk space on the user’s computer.
• inject.sh: redirect stderr to /dev/null first, before grep. The way sh works, output to a file with > or >> is done left-to-right, though in practise this is implementation-defined. There was no observable difference either way, but this is more standard behaviour nonetheless.
• rom.sh: Safer use of cat in copyps1bios - it was piped, so there was no error handling. I added use of the x_ command wrapper, for error handling. This is lbmk’s way of implementing something similar to set -o pipefail, while only using POSIX sh features.
• tree.sh: don’t keep re-checking a given crossgcc tree, for each target. a file is created in the project’s elf directory, for a given tree (if multi tree). this avoids computationally expensive checks and shaves quite a bit of time, especially on full release bulids.
• tree.sh: check crossgcc builds after checking ELF directories. this is a hack, to fix a bug that previously existed where crossgcc was being built, if required for a build of a given project, when a non-build operation was being performed.
• lib.sh: Additional error handling on a cat command. The output was piped, which meant that there was effectively no error handling before this change, on that given command. It is the cat command that creates padded coreboot builds for releases.
• tree.sh: Delete files before updating hashes, when checking for project auto-deletion. This change fixes the previous bug where if a deletion files, the new hash would be recorded but with stale artifacts from previous project sources. This makes the build system more deterministic under fault conditions.
• tree.sh: don’t delete builds if tree==target - this avoids wasting computational time, since prior tree-wide checks (for auto-deletion) would have already occured.
• rom.sh: Don’t run mkhelpers if release=n - this fixes a build error when running release builds, for boards that set release=n, because otherwise certain dependencies were still being handled erroneously where other dependencies did not exist (in that build state).
• coreboot/default: probe EDID twice in libgfxinit - some buggy adapters don’t have good timing, so software like Linux has to probe them twice. This behaviour has been implemented in Libreboot’s version of coreboot.
• T480/T480: Drop redundant PcieRpEnable from - otherwise, it wouldn’t build. Note that this was only relevant when Libreboot maintained T480 support patches out-of-tree. Before this RC release, the T480 was merged upstream in coreboot, and Libreboot updated its coreboot version to use the port provided there, so now upstream maintains this code.
• include/lib.sh: Don’t break erroneously in a context where it’s not used.

Another bug focus in this release was to clean up the logic of Libreboot’s build system, and fix several bugs, especially those relating to error handling.

One of the bigger cleanups here is that previously, a lot of temporary files were placed under cache/, but the latter is meant for permanent files, not temporary files.

In descending order from the latest changes to the earliest changes:

• tree.sh (and get.sh): Implement a forcepull macro, for easier reading of the logic whether to skip pulling from upstream if a given revision exists (see: -f vs -F flags in mk).
• tree.sh; convert do_make into a macro. This is used to tell whether to do a full build, useful when doing dry builds for example.
• Entire build system (lbmk): Store variables in alphabetical order, and without using the setvar shorthand. This improves readibility of the scripts, for most people.
• Implement a if_dry_build macro in tree.sh and rom.sh, similar to the if_not_dry_build micro. It makes certain shortcode notations easier to read, when dealing with the idiosyncrasies of -d (dry) vs -f (full) builds.
• tree.sh: Renamed the xtree variable to xgcctree, for code clarity.
• tree.sh: Renamed the btype variable to buildtype, for code clarity.
• vendor.sh: Renamed the t (with underscore) variable to blobtype, for code clarity.
• tree.sh: Renamed the variable f (with underscore) to flag, for code clarity.
• xbmk: Renamed the dry variable to if_not_dry_run, which serves the same purpose, as essentially a macro in sh.
• xbmk: Removed the setcfg function, which then allowed me to remove a bunch of eval commands; now I just use the dot command to include files, and still with proper error handling.
• init.sh: Generally split up a lot of larger functions into smaller functions with stubs.
• vendor.sh: Generally break up a bunch of functions into subfunctions. E.g. the kbc1126 ec extraction is much cleaner now. Ditto check_gnu_path.
• get.sh: Rename try_file to try_fetch, because it’s actually a generic function that also handles local file copying, not just downloads from the internet.
• A lot of functions in the build system were previously written in a quite highly condensed style. This has been unrolled, to create a more readable code style across the entire build system.
• vendor.sh: General cleanup of the functions. Ditto inject.sh. Split them out, make everything clearer for the reader.
• init.sh and tree.sh: PATH directories are now inside the proper TMPDIR, not cache/ - this reduces the chance of stale files being left behind and used by subsequent and/or other instances of xbmk.
• release.sh: vdir now inside the proper TMPDIR, not cache/ - this reduces the chance of large stale files being left behind improperly, especially under fault conditions.
• Entire build system: Remove the xbloc variable. We previously did TMPDIR inside /tmp, so we had to assume the user might have a tmpfs /tmp with limited memory available; we therefore maintained a less-than-reliable disk-based system of tmpfile handling; Unix doesn’t have much flexibility here, so the TMPDIR variable is the only official one that defines such a path. Because we now force TMPDIR to be inside the xbmk work directory, we no longer need a separate system of tmpfile management. We can just do everything inside of the proper TMPDIR.
• get.sh: Remove unused variable repofail.
• get.sh: in the function xbget, use of eval has been greatly reduced. The eval function should be avoided when possible, because if misused, it could easily lead to code injection vulnerabilities.
• init.sh: Tidied up xbmk_set_env; it is actually a generic function that handles many different types of tasks, so it is now a smaller shim and logic has been split out.
• init.sh: TMPDIR handling is now its own helper function. Simplifications have also been made to the lock file handling. Functions specific to child instances and specific to parent instances are now separately; previously, the logic was all inside one function. The main function now, for forking the build system depending on the instance type, is now a very small shim function, making the logic much more reasonable.
• mk: Remove the check in the main script, that reacted according to whether it was being run by a symlink. Due to simplifications in lbmk, we now only ever use ./mk.
• vendor.sh: Tidy up extract_intel_me - remove use of chained commands, make it easier for a normal person to read.
• tree.sh: rename hashvar to badhashvar - make it more obvious what it’s doing. Ditto rename hashname to hashdir. Reame hashtype to hashname.
• tree.sh: unified project hash handling - for target builds and tree builds, the logic is mostly identical anyway. A helper function was implemented.
