[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi,

I've installed gnome-boxes and I found out that it proposes to download
and run many distribution installers.

As it contains many non-FSDG compliant distributions, many of these
distributions probably contain nonfree firmwares at least.

Not all distributions are problematic though, as it contain some FSDG
compliant distributions.

Denis.
