But what if an older Coreboot has been flashed already? The newest Lenovo BIOS for the X230 dates from June 2018, which is definitely newer than the Coreboot (SeaBIOS version 1.11.0) which is on this machine now. Should I firstly flash the new Lenovo BIOS or directly flash the newest Skull? I bought that X230 with Coreboot already flashed, so I don't have the original BIOS nor any information one might need to gather from it.

Re: [qubes-users] Qubes OS 4.0.2-rc2 has been released!
Hi all, Is it just me or does the iso really not fit onto a regular DVD? I tried several burn programs - same result. The 4.8 GB iso doesn't fit onto a 4.7 GB DVD. Is a double-layer DVD required or is it possible to delete some seldomly needed parts from the iso? Or did I catch a [three-digits-agency]-in-the-middle version?

The Thinkpad x230 is a wonderful piece of hardware, but one cannot get fully rid of ME. It can be neutered, though. I'm just not sure if this is good enough.

Also Elpida, Hynix, Corsair (but not the "Value Select" line), Samsung and ADATA work well on both my i5 and i7 X230. Kingston RAM acts strangely. It works but seems slow or somehow 'sluggish'.
