Hello, i want to update my bios on my x60s and following this page:
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/BIOS_Upgrade/X_Series
Seems the approach1 is the suitable for me (have external CD) and seems safe.
I used the script convertlenovo.sh but the image created is not
recognized at start
(reads the CD, but says: "not system disk. replace..."). Wondering if
i haven't burned ok the image,
i checked that bios from lenovo iso, and out.iso are quite big:
ls -l *.iso
-rw-r--r-- 1 xavier xavier 4608000 2008-11-04 12:13 7buj26uc.iso
-rw-r--r-- 1 xavier xavier 49905664 2008-11-04 13:30 out.iso
but if i mount out.iso:
sudo mount out.iso /mnt/usb_hdd/ -o loop
and i list contents:
ls -l /mnt/usb_hdd/
total 2
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 2048 2008-11-04 13:30 boot.cat
is only 2KB length !!
what i am doing wrong?
the shsucdrd.exe and shsucdx.com used are thiese:
