Open-source firmware consulting firm 3mdeb published a blog post today outlining their work on bringing their Coreboot-downstream Dasharo to the ASRock Rack SPC741D8/2L2T, a recent server motherboard for supporting Intel Xeon Sapphire Rapids and Emerald Rapids processors.

Thanks to work by student engineers at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, upstream Coreboot already has a basic port to the ASRock Rack SPC741D8/2L2T. 3mdeb brought the code over to their Dasharo downstream fork while enabling a variety of features found in their downstream branch. Plus getting it to boot Microsoft Windows 11 and other features.

It's nice that they ported it, but it would be much nicer if there were any server boards with open firmware that not super old, but right now being cycled out of professional use and thus cheap to pick up from resellers.
