Please read the post
Neuter Intel ME with me_cleaner which describes how to read and write BIOS chips with an SPI programmer - this will not be covered here. This guide is written for a Linux system.
Basic steps are
- Obtain a copy of Coreboot and submodules
- Build needed tools
- Create optional blobs
- Configure Coreboot and payload settings
- Make Coreboot image
- Flash image
Things to note
- Coreboot can apply me_cleaner automatically.
- Coreboot will make Thinkpad Power Manager, and Hotkey Manager non-functional in Windows.
- You will loose some features from Lenovo BIOS e.g. ATA/startup/BIOS passwords, enabling/disabling ports, advanced or unlocked BIOS options, Windows licenses.
Obtain Coreboot
Run the following code
git clone http://review.coreboot.org/coreboot.git ~/coreboot
cd ~/coreboot
git submodule update --init --recursive
Build Tools
We now need to build
ifdtool,
gcc, and
iasl needed to compile Coreboot binaries.
cd ~/coreboot/util/ifdtool
make
cd ~/coreboot
make crossgcc-i386
This will take a while. An example output log can be found at the bottom of the post.
Blobs
We will require some proprietary blobs from the Lenovo BIOS required to initialize proprietary Intel components in the chipset. We can do this using
ifdtool.
First move the firmware that was read using the SPI programmer to the
ifdtool directory
~/coreboot/util/ifdtool Then run
ifdtool -x original.bin # original.bin is the firmware you read from the motherboard
This will create these files in the current directory
flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin
flashregion_1_bios.bin
flashregion_2_intel_me.bin
flashregion_3_gbe.bin
We will then move these to the directory that coreboot will look in.
mkdir -p ~/coreboot/3rdparty/blobs/mainboard/lenovo/x220
cd ~/coreboot/3rdparty/blobs/mainboard/lenovo/x220
mv ~/flashregion_0_flashdescriptor.bin descriptor.bin
mv ~/flashregion_2_intel_me.bin me.bin
mv ~/flashregion_3_gbe.bin gbe.bin
We will also require a VGA BIOS for graphics within the console and for Windows compatibility. If you only plan on running Linux this is optional as the kernel will take care of it. For this step we will need the orignal X220 BIOS from Lenovo and uefitool.
git clone https://github.com/LongSoft/UEFITool.git ~/coreboot/util/uefitool
make
cp [location of $01CB000.FL1 from extracted Lenovo firmware update] ~/coreboot/util/uefitool
uefitool $01CB000.FL1
Then do the following
- Open the search tool in uefitool, select Text mode, uncheck Unicode, and search for the string, "VGA Compatible BIOS".
- Double click on the result. This will bring you to the section where this string is found.
- Right click on the highlighted section and click "Extract Body".
- Save the file as vbios.bin in ~/coreboot/3rdparty/blobs/mainboard/lenovo/x220
- Quit uefitool
We now have all the bits we need to compile Coreboot
.
Configure Coreboot
Run the following
cd ~/coreboot
make nconfig
This screen will allow us to configure Coreboot settings, drivers, payloads etc. Read the helpful setting description using the F2 key. I used the following settings. If the option is not shown below, it is not set or the default setting. Seabios is the recommended payload (program to boot an OS).
General
[*] Compress ramstage with LZMA
[*] Include the coreboot .config file into the ROM image
[*] Create a table of timestamps collected during boot
Mainboard
Mainboard vendor (Lenovo) --->
Mainboard model (ThinkPad X220) --->
ROM chip size (8192 KB (8 MB)) --->
Chipset
[*] Enable VMX for virtualization
[*] Set lock bit after configuring VMX
Include CPU microcode in CBFS (Generate from tree) --->
*** Northbridge ***
[*] Use native raminit
[*] Ignore vendor programmed fuses that limit max. DRAM frequency
*** Southbridge ***
[*] Lock down chipset in coreboot
*** Super I/O ***
*** Embedded Controllers ***
[*] Beep on fatal error
[*] Flash LEDs on fatal error
*** Intel Firmware ***
[*] Add Intel descriptor.bin file
(3rdparty/blobs/mainboard/$(MAINBOARDDIR)/descriptor.bin) Path and
[*] Add Intel ME/TXE firmware
(3rdparty/blobs/mainboard/$(MAINBOARDDIR)/me.bin) Path to manageme
[*] Verify the integrity of the supplied ME/TXE firmware
[*] Strip down the Intel ME/TXE firmware
*** Please test the modified ME/TXE firmware and coreboot in
[*] Add gigabit ethernet firmware
(3rdparty/blobs/mainboard/$(MAINBOARDDIR)/gbe.bin) Path to gigabit
Devices
Graphics initialization (Run VGA Option ROMs)--->
[*] Re-run VGA Option ROMs on S3 resume
[*] Load Option ROMs on PCI devices
Option ROM execution type (Native mode)--->
Display--->
-*- Enable PCIe Common Clock
-*- Enable PCIe ASPM
[*] Enable PCIe Clock Power Management
[*] Enable PCIe ASPM L1 SubState
[*] Add a VGA BIOS image
(3rdparty/blobs/mainboard/lenovo/x220/vbios.bin) VGA BIOS path and f
(8086,0126) VGA device PCI IDs
[*] Add a Video Bios Table (VBT) binary to CBFS
(src/mainboard/$(MAINBOARDDIR)/data.vbt) VBT binary path and filen
Generic Drivers
[*] Support Intel PCI-e WiFi adapters
[*] PS/2 keyboard init
Console
[*] Use onboard VGA as primary video device
System Tables
[*] Generate SMBIOS tables
Payload
Add a payload (SeaBIOS)--->
SeaBIOS version (1.12.0)--->
(3000) PS/2 keyboard controller initialization timeout (millisecon
[*] Hardware init during option ROM execution
Payload compression algorithm (Use LZMA compression for payloads)
[*] Use LZMA compression for secondary payloads
Secondary Payloads--->
[*] Load coreinfo as a secondary payload
[*] Load Memtest86+ as a secondary payload
[*] Load nvramcui as a secondary payload
[*] Load tint as a secondary payload
Memtest86+ version (Stable)--->
Save the config (F6) then Exit (F9). We can now compile Coreboot. Run
make
If all goes well we well you will see
Built lenovo/x220 (ThinkPad X220)
...and have a Coreboot image
~/coreboot/build/coreboot.rom
Flash the Image
Follow the instructions to flash
coreboot.rom here, and hope that it works.
Congratulations!
You now have Coreboot on your system!

Welcome to the coreboot cross toolchain builder v1.53 (August 16th, 2018)
Building toolchain using 4 thread(s).
Target architecture is i386-elf
WARNING
No compatible Ada compiler (GNAT) found. You can continue without
Ada support, but this will limit the features of coreboot (e.g.
native graphics initialization won't be available on most Intel
boards).
Usually, you can install GNAT with your package management system
(the package is called `gnat` or `gcc-ada`). It has to match the
`gcc` package in version. If there are multiple versions of GCC in-
stalled, you can point this script to the matching version through
the `CC` and `CXX` environment variables.
e.g. on Ubuntu 14.04, if `gcc` is `gcc-4.8`:
apt-get install gnat-4.8 && make crossgcc
on Ubuntu 16.04, if `gcc` is `gcc-5`:
apt-get install gnat-5 && make crossgcc
