Issue #620 has been updated by Olli Asikainen.


FWIW I flashed 26.03 onto my x230 today and it works, using the same config I had for 25.06.

* Affected hardware: x230t
----------------------------------------
Releases 25.09, 25.12 are affected. 25.06 works.

The commit 97dbfd3098ae12ef3f51e5f95cd6d66c25214205 prevents the x230t from going past the `postcar` stage, hence it being inoperable since it won't load into the main payload.

I have attempted to debug using flashconsole but the trail runs cold after `postcar`.


Credit to iam_tj for finding the commit.

Also, Libreboot is somehow unaffected by this. I don't know if lbmk undoes this commit or not at this time.
