Hello, I know that libreboot completely remove intel ME from old boards based on GM45 chipset (like lenovo T400), and recently I found that it is possible to neutralize it on newer chipsets also: https://github.com/corna/me_cleaner Since some of my T400 laptops still running on original BIOS (mostly because of external video card and battery management with tp_smapi), I was thinking if it is possible to use ich9deblob to remove intel ME from original bios image. I have a special connector added to the laptops so reading/writing flash images is quick and easy now. The question is: Can I generate new descriptors with ich9deblob from factory.rom (original bios image) and then add the descriptors with "dd" to it just like to the libreboot image? Like: flashrom -r factory.rom ich9deblob dd if=deblobbed_descriptor.bin of=factory.rom bs=1 count=12k conv=notrunc flashrom -w factory.rom
Thanks in advance, Michael Widlok
