the e6400_4mb target has libgfxinit and (if seabios) vgarom
initialisation, but has issues on the nvidia model, even when
using nomodeset. with this target, e6400nvidia_4mb, only
the vgarom initialisation is used, libgfxinit is disabled.
on nvidia models, this one should work a little bit better.
specifically: nouveau crashes on this machine, with libreboot
installed, but you can use nomodeset. however, when libgfxinit
is also enabled, nomodeset no longer works properly.
so this target disables all video initialisation in coreboot.
only seabios will initialise anything video-related, by
executing the vga option rom.

Inside the BIOS update, there's 68SCE and 68SCF variants.
Based on Qubes HCL and browsing linux-hardware.org, these are
Probook 6360b and Elitebook 8460p respectively.
I checked the KBC1126 EC Firmwares within the update file, both
use the exact same firmware images. Following-up will be a very
similar but untested port for 6360b.

note: me6_update_parser needs to be written, similar
to me7_update_parser, to generate the partition
tables within intel me6 on lenovo bios updates.
the current logic in lbmk goes like this:
mkdir -p vendorfiles/cache/
and save your factory dump as:
vendorfiles/cache/x201_factory.rom
the build system has been modified, in such a way
as to support extracting me.bin (which is the full
one) and then neutering from this.
this is done automatically, if the file is present,
but you must first insert that file there, which means
you'll need a dump of the original boot flash on your
thinkpad x201

in the future, we may start downloading files that aren't
blobs, such as mxm port configs (on mainboards that use
MXM graphics)
this directory will contain all of those files
generally change the language used, across lbmk, to make
use of "vendorfile" instead of "blob"
