 Coreboot on the T440p requires the following binary blobs:
 
-- `mrc.bin` - Consists of Intel’s Memory Reference Code (MRC) and [is used to initialize the DRAM](https://doc.coreboot.org/northbridge/intel/haswell/mrc.bin.html).
 - `me.bin` - Consists of Intel’s Management Engine (ME), which we modify using [me_cleaner](https://github.com/corna/me_cleaner) to remove all but the modules which are necessary for the CPU to function.
 - `gbe.bin` - Consists of hardware/software configuration data for the Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) controller. Intel publishes the data structure [here](https://web.archive.org/web/20230122164346/https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/design-guides/i-o-controller-hub-8-9-nvm-map-guide.pdf), and an [ImHex](https://github.com/WerWolv/ImHex) hex editor pattern is available [here](https://github.com/rbreslow/ImHex-Patterns/blob/rb/intel-ich8/patterns/intel/ich8_lan_nvm.hexpat).
 - `ifd.bin` - Consists of the Intel Flash Descriptor (IFD). Intel publishes the data structure [here](https://web.archive.org/web/20221208011432/https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/datasheets/io-controller-hub-8-datasheet.pdf), and an ImHex hex editor pattern is available [here](https://github.com/rbreslow/ImHex-Patterns/blob/rb/intel-ich8/patterns/intel/ich8_flash_descriptor.hexpat).
 
 Heads supplies an IFD and GbE blob, which we extracted from a donor board. We changed the MAC address of the GbE blob to `00:de:ad:c0:ff:ee` using [nvmutil](https://libreboot.org/docs/install/nvmutil.html), to support anonymity and build reproducibility.
 
-When building any T440p board variant with `make`, the build system will download a copy of the MRC and Intel ME. We extract `mrc.bin` from a Chromebook firmware image and `me.bin` from a Lenovo firmware update.

+Note that due to native ram initialization for haswell boards in coreboot it is no longer necessary to use a third party blob (`mrc.bin`) for that.
