   Updates on my #x200:

   If I want to flash #libreboot I will need a special clip to connect the bios chip of the laptop to the GPIOs of a Raspberry Pi or BeagleBone Black.
   Until now I have not found someone who sells this clips here in germany for an acceptable price. 😐

   Looks like I have 3 options:

   -running a libre os but life with the unfree uefi and use a wifi stick

   -install a not 100% libre GNU/Linux

   -find someone who can help me with flashing libreboot

      @themightyglider you could use a USB Programmer CH341A ($5usd in banggood) instead of RPi. In Mexico my option was order a sop16 clip from Aliexpress (8usd or less).
