 ======Flashing my Lenovo x230 with Coreboot======
+<WRAP info smaller>
+This guide is fairly old (2020/2021) and I haven't had time to update it with any changes that Coreboot may require.
+Most of the steps will still be relevant but I suggest cross-checking with the Coreboot site for any necessary updates until I can update this guide.
+I apologize for any inconveniences this causes.

 I flashed my Lenovo x230 with Coreboot and documented how I did it.

 First, we need to gather the supplies that we need to perform the flash. This time, we will be using a CH341a instead of the BeagleBone Black that I used on the [[laptop:lenovo-x200:flash-lenovo-x200-libreboot|Libreboot X200]] Flash.
