Those did not work for me, at least with stock BIOS. Agreed though, it
will works if coreboot is installed. On the minor side, the step 2,
i.e. flashing coreboot once it has been flashed to get the last 64k
right, require stock flashrom with no modifications/patches
whatsoever.

Again, I am new to this, playing it by ear, so treat my statements
with a pinch of salt.

(writing it from another happily converted x60s, one T60 to go).

Best regards,
