    Hi,

    Thanks a lot for the efforts to create all the whitelisted BIOS. I've just bought an Ultimate N-6300 for my x220 and it won't work unless I install the hacked BIOS. I've upgraded to the latest BIOS (1.38, booting from a USB device) and I've downloaded the update package, but I'm not sure how to run it in Linux. It doesn't seem to work in Wine. I've looked at the extracted Modified_WL.EXE and when I run it it extracts some files that look very much like the ones that are in the USB device I used to upgrade to the official BIOS in the first place, but I'm not sure if I'm just supposed to copy them there.

    Is there a way to install the whitelisted bios from Linux? Is there a bootable iso image for them? Or can I generate it myself somehow?

    I've googled around for a long while and I've searched on this forum but I haven't found any answers. I hope some of you guys can help me!

    Thank you so much.
