<div dir="ltr">Hi everyone
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Since here are the most skilled professions I've seeing I
believe someone can help me. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have a Lenovo x230, and I'll would like to install
coreboot in it to start to understand how it works, and in
future start to help the community, as soon as I have the
knowledge for that.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Last week I did a test that makes my progress stop.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Just for fun, and to check how the commercial bios works, I
connected a postcard on the wireless slot (as far as I know
this is a pcie slot). </div>
<div>I already did that with other notebooks I have and nothing
wrong happened.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The problem is that this time, with this x230, after I
connected the postcard and turned the system on, the system
stopped to boot. And the post card does not stop at a specific
post code.</div>
<div>What happens now, is that every time I turn the system on,
the battery led blinks 3 times, being two blinks followed by a
1 second stop and after that the last blink, and the system
reboots.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The post card I'm using is this: <a

<div><br>
</div>
<div>So my questions are:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>-Does someone believe this postcard could have bricked the
system? (Why?)</div>
<div>-Any idea about how to solve that?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>My next test will be to write a coreboot build at this
system using buspirate, but since I'll only have time for this
next week, I would like to have some things to think about,
this is why I sent this e-mail before doing the coreboot flash
test.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Any comment will be helpful.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks and Regards</div>
