WARNING: this will take a @strong{*long*} time. Be patient! What this will do
is look through the coreboot source directory, looking for blobs. It will not
find the blobs that you deleted before (because they no longer exist), and it
will ignore any files listed in @emph{nonblobs}.

detected as blobs; some might be blobs, some not. The @emph{findblobs} script
doesn't know how to determine between blobs and non-blobs, it only knows
patterns. Distinguishing between blobs and non-blobs must be performed by you,
the human being.
