The developers behind coreboot have provided an update on their progress developing a port of the open-source BIOS to a consumer AM5 motherboard, the MSI Pro B850-P. Phoronix reports that 3mdeb, the company behind coreboot, has successfully ported several important blocks required to support AMD (Phoenix) Ryzen 8000 APUs, featuring MPIO, SMU, NBIO, FCH SD, FCH ACPI, and RcMgr. The company also addressed the missing USB initialization code that was causing USB failures to occur on the board previously.
