Here are some of the guides I used. They're for the x230, but the x230 is similar enough to the t430 that a lot of stuff should be the same or similar. YMMV, though, as I'm currently struggling to get coreboot working on my T530 A video fully explaining coreboot for an x230: https://vimeo.com/177951809 The coreboot wiki is the best resource, though it seems to be down as of this post. https://www.coreboot.org/Board:lenovo/x230 This guide looks fairly informative for the T430: https://github.com/sellerie98/Coreboot-ThinkPad-T430/wiki/Procedure I strongly recommend buying a CH341A, some short jumper wires, and a pomona SOIC8 (5250) clip for this. A raspberry pi will work for flashing, but in my experience it is slow, and in some cases very unreliable, which could mean the difference between a laptop and a brick. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
