kakaroto changed his copy of heads to point to his own github account's fbwhiptail:

But it seems that source.puri.sm/coreboot is a more accessible home for the
project.
This reduces the amount of noise in the Linux kernel config files
by only storing the differences from the stock configuration.
It adds a new makefile target 'linux.saveconfig' to convert the
build tree's .config file into config/linux-linuxboot.config.
The Librem Key is a custom device USB-based security token Nitrokey is
producing for Purism and among other things it has custom firmware
created for use with Heads. In particular, when a board is configured
with CONFIG_LIBREMKEY, this custom firmware allows Heads to use the
sealed TOTP secret to also send an HOTP authentication to the Librem
Key. If the HOTP code is successful, the Librem Key will blink a green
LED, if unsuccessful it will blink red, thereby informing the user that
Heads has been tampered with without requiring them to use a phone to
validate the TOTP secret.
Heads will still use and show the TOTP secret, in case the user wants to
validate both codes (in case the Librem Key was lost or is no longer
trusted). It will also show the result of the HOTP verification (but not
the code itself), even though the user should trust only what the Librem
Key displays, so the user can confirm that both the device and Heads are
in sync. If HOTP is enabled, Heads will maintain a new TPM counter
separate from the Heads TPM counter that will increment each time HOTP
codes are checked.
This change also modifies the routines that update TOTP so that if
the Librem Key executables are present it will also update HOTP codes
and synchronize them with a Librem Key.
This modifies the segment at 0x0 so that it contains enough of a fake
Extended BIOS Data Area at addresses 0x40e and 0x413 that Xen can
correctly locate its trampoline code.
Since custom Xen is no longer required, we can remove the module,
the patches and all of the references to it in the board definition
files.
The modules file had a few errors that prevented slang from being built.
First the src/elfobjs file needed to be created before make started.
Second it needed to be configured without external png, pcre and onig
libraries it doesn't need for this application.
The whiptail binary will allow us to create GUI menus from bash scripts.
It is included in the newt library, which depends on slang. To enable,
the board configuration file should add CONFIG_SLANG=y and CONFIG_NEWT=y
USB smart card readers are most full speed devices, and there is no
"rate-matching hubs" beneath the root hub on older (e.g. GM45) plat-
forms, which has companion OHCI or UHCI controllers and needs cor-
responding drivers to communicate with card readers directly plugged
into the motherboard, otherwise a discrete USB hub should be inserted
between the motherboard and the reader.
This time I make inserting linux modules for OHCI and UHCI controllable
with option CONFIG_LINUX_USB_COMPANION_CONTROLLER.
A linux config for x200 is added as an example.
Tested on my x200s and elitebook revolve 810g1.
This adds a `CONFIG_UROOT=y` option to allow the busybox
runtime to be replaced with the go u-root runtime.
You must have go 1.9 or newer for it to work.
It has been tested on the OCP winterfell and qemu nodes,
and it can be specified on the build command line as well.
Nothing from `heads/initrd` or any of the tools will be
linked into the cpio file. Only the kernel modules and the
go shell will be included.
Move board configuration into `boards/` instead of `config/`
Fix mistake in building kernel module tree before kernel was done.
Allow per-board initrd builds (#278)
