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!
Note: If a device is not supported by LinuxBIOSv2, try checking LinuxBIOSv1 for support.
