Beschreibung:
That laptop cannot boot with free software as the following nonfree software are required:
* A stripped down version of the nonfree management engine firmware
* A nonfree EC firmware
Both needed to be included in Coreboot to work.
Beside that it has an Intel GPU which seem to work fine with free software, and I replaced the WiFi card with an ath9k after installing Coreboot.
