Is the boot process as secure as the so-called "Pure Boot" process with Pure OS? It's not clear to me how to use the TPM or head with Guix. >> Also, would it make sense for us to have a package specifically for >> hardware like this to make it easier to build install images for the >> machines?

It would be nice to collect that. Yes! And I think a great way to collect those responses would be programatically. For example, you say that there wasn't "anything particularly sspecial for the laptop to work". I still think there's value in programatically declaring support for the Librem -- even if there's nothing much there. It allows future users to have confidence that the hardware configuration is supported. And should something come up, we already have somewhere to hang our hat :) -- Katherine
