@ -8,17 +8,34 @@ E6400, which mainly seem to be the Latitude and Precision lines starting from

around 2008 (E6400 era).
|

|
||||
## TL;DR
|
||||
On Linux, ensure you are booting with the `iomem=relaxed` kernel parameter.
|
||||
On OpenBSD, ensure you are booting with securelevel set to -1.
|
||||
Run `make` to compile the utility, and then run `sudo ./dell_flash_unlock` and
|
||||
follow the directions it outputs.
|
||||
|
||||
### Linux specific
|
||||
- On Linux, ensure you are booting with the `iomem=relaxed` kernel parameter.
|
||||
- If you get a "Function not implemented" error, ensure that your kernel has
|
||||
"CONFIG_X86_IOPL_IOPERM" set to "y". Here are several common locations for
|
||||
the config and how to check them:
|
||||
- `zcat /proc/config.gz | grep IOPL`
|
||||
- `grep IOPL /boot/config`
|
||||
- `grep IOPL /boot/config-$(uname -r)`
|
||||
If it says it is not set, then you will need to install or compile a kernel
|
||||
with that option set.
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenBSD
|
||||
- On OpenBSD, ensure you are booting with securelevel set to -1.
|
||||
|
||||
### General
|
||||
Make sure an AC adapter is plugged into your system
|
||||
|
||||
Run `make` to compile the utility, and then run `./dell_flash_unlock` with
|
||||
root/superuser permissions and follow the directions it outputs.
|
||||
|
||||
## Confirmed supported devices
|
||||
- Latitude E6400, E6500
|
||||
- Latitude E6410, E4310
|
||||
- Latitude E6420
|
||||
- Latitude E6430, E6530
|
||||
- Precision M6800
|
||||
- Latitude E6420, E6520
|
||||
- Latitude E6430, E6530, E5530
|
||||
- Latitude E7240
|
||||
- Precision M6800, M5800
|
||||
|
||||
It is likely that any other Latitude/Precision laptops from the same era as
|
||||
devices specifically mentioned in the above list will work as Dell seems to use
