Hi Jon, That is a good question. In fact I think Joe would be the right person to answer this. We (HP) get the latest BIOS and SINIT AC modules from Intel for our mobile platforms. I am not sure if the SINIT modules available on the Tboot sourceforge website (for desktop chipsets) can be used on the mobile platforms which has the bios integrated with latest BIOS AC module (I think both the modules should match for tboot to work). I am guessing that the SINIT modules for the mobile platforms will also be soon uploaded onto the sourceforge website. Thanks Karthik On Mon, Nov 10, 2008 at 12:18 PM, Jonathan M.
