ʻO ka papahana LinuxBoot kahi kokoke i ʻelua makahiki, a i kēia manawa ua holomua nui. Hoʻonohonoho ʻia kēia papahana ma ke ʻano he analogue wehe o ka firmware UEFI proprietary. Eia naʻe, a hiki i kēia manawa, ua kaupalena ʻia ka ʻōnaehana. Eia naʻe, i kēia manawa ʻo Chris Koch o Google mana hou ma ke ʻano he ʻāpana o ka Security Summit 2019.
Ua hōʻike ʻia ke kūkulu hou ʻana o LinuxBoot e kākoʻo i ka booting Windows 10. Ke hana pū nei ka booting VMware a me Xen. Aia ma lalo kahi wikiō mai ka piko, a loaʻa ka hōʻike.
E hoʻomaopopo ʻo ka motherboard mua me LinuxBoot firmware ʻo ia ka Intel S2600wf. Ua hoʻohana pū ʻia i nā kikowaena Dell R630. Aia ka papahana i nā loea mai Google, Facebook, Horizon Computing Solutions a me Two Sigma.
I loko o ke kahua o LinuxBoot, ua hoʻomohala ʻia nā ʻāpana āpau e pili ana i ka kernel Linux, a ʻaʻole lākou e hoʻopaʻa ʻia i kahi kaiapuni runtime kikoʻī. Hoʻohana ʻia ʻo Coreboot, Uboot SPL a me UEFI PEI e hoʻomaka i ka hāmeʻa. E ālai kēia i ka hana hope o UEFI, SMM a me Intel ME, a me ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka pale, no ka mea ua piha pinepine ka firmware proprietary i nā lua a me nā nāwaliwali palekana.
Eia kekahi, e like me kekahi mau ʻikepili, LinuxBoot hiki iā ʻoe ke wikiwiki i ka hoʻouka ʻana o ka server i nā manawa he ʻumi ma ka wehe ʻana i nā code i hoʻohana ʻole ʻia a me nā ʻano ʻano optimizations. I ka manawa like, ʻaʻole makemake nā mea hana e hoʻololi i LinuxBoot. Eia nō naʻe, i ka wā e hiki mai ana e loli paha kēia ʻano i ka open source, no ka mea, hoʻonui ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka firmware open i ka hiki ke ʻike i kahi nāwaliwali a wikiwiki i ke kaʻina hana patching.
