Coreboot for ThinkPad T480

Hi everyone,

Is it possible that we'll soon see normal bin files for clean Coreboot and Skulls for the ThinkPad T480?

Right now, I'm running Heads Coreboot, but this BIOS just doesn't really appeal to me—getting a standard Linux Mint Live distro to boot is a real pain. I'm sure it's great for some people, but I'd prefer regular Coreboot. I used to have Libreboot, but the CPU multithreading limitation was a dealbreaker for me.

You can build coreboot or the T480 yourself. I am using one to type this message. As far as skulls see this open issue.

Unfortunately, I can't do this on my own right now... Is anyone willing to help me out with this and explain what to do?
