Me helping @craftyguy with coreboot 🤝 @craftyguy helping me with initramfs

Is this the famous "law of equivalent exchange"?

@elly a pleasure doing business with you, as always. 🤝

@elly @craftyguy wow this decoded well,,

(in software! o.0)

@elly @valpackett woah the matrix

@elly @craftyguy What device is this and how did you change the boot logo?

@fun @elly @craftyguy on older Xiaomis, the splash screens for the bootloader are stored on the logo partition and just some bitmaps (one for splash, fastboot screen, etc.). The partition isn't signed either, you can just edit it and flash it back.

@aelin @elly @craftyguy ah, thought this one had the logo inside the ABL as the newer ones do.

@elly @craftyguy now only if linuxboot were able to be packaged in pmaports in a generic way :D

@elly @craftyguy what's up with the seventh Tux? Is that a core on hold or one that failed or smth?

@CyReVolt @craftyguy camera cut-out

@elly
tuxes will hide behind notches. to flabbergast you.
@craftyguy @CyReVolt

@fun @aelin @craftyguy yep:

0x15B6000 is especially interesting, as you can hide AVB warning (it simply shows a lock on top of the screen)… I just must have messed up the offset somehow

@elly @craftyguy Its the famous ⚠️ trade offer ⚠️
