# Supporting New Systems and Opening Issues
Please read the [longform FAQ](https://medium.com/@n4ru/1vyrain-an-xx30-thinkpad-jailbreak-fd4bb0bdb654) before asking about compatability or reporting an issue to make sure it is not a duplicate.

**NOTE:** This will NOT modify your EC. You are safe to flash your EC with the battery or keyboard mod at any time as long as you are on a version compatible with the EC mod (check compatibility [here](https://github.com/hamishcoleman/thinkpad-ec#compatibilty-warning)). Both IVprep and 1vyrain will only modify the BIOS region! You can safely use this image to update to the latest modded BIOS without losing your EC mod!
# Custom BIOS Images
By default, the image includes the latest BIOS versions for all models, but you can flash a custom image such as heads, skulls, or a coreboot build. Make sure you have wired ethernet attached on boot, and that your image is *EXACTLY* 4MB and uploaded somewhere that you can grab with a simple `wget` command. When asked what to flash, select "Flash a custom BIOS from URL" (option 2). Input the URL. That's it!
# Custom binaries
By default, the image includes the latest BIOS versions for all models, but you can flash a custom image such as heads, skulls, or a coreboot build. Make sure you have wired ethernet attached on boot, and that your image is *EXACTLY* 4MB and uploaded somewhere that you can grab with a simple `wget` command(http only, https currently not supported.). When asked what to flash, select "Flash a custom BIOS from URL" (option 2). Input the URL. That's it!
Don't worry, if your download screws up or the filesize was wrong, the flashing will simply fail. You won't brick.
# Custom splash image
To get a custom splash image follow this procedure:
1. Update with original Lenovo update tool following LOGO.txt instructions
2. Read back the `bios` region with flashrom or FPTW
3. Chop off first 8M of the rom `dd if=backup.rom of=4M.rom bs=1M skip=8`
4. Apply patches from patched-bios repo
5. Downgrade with IVprep
6. Write as a custom binary from liveUSB
