+Refer to [external flashing instructions](spi.md).
+
+NOTE: You need Intel ME firmware on this, but the Libreboot build system does
+not currently auto-download for this board. You must dump a copy of your
+original Lenovo firmware, and place it under `vendorfiles/cache/` in the
+build system (create this directory if needed); save
+it as 'x201_factory.rom'
+
+Disassembly is similar to ThinkPad X200, but the flash is under some tape,
+just north east of the CR2032 coin-cell battery on the mainboard, so you have
+to peel back the tape. (north east, if you were looking at the screen with
+the lid open - it's about 1cm away from the CR2032)
+
+Internal flashing is possible, if you already have coreboot-based firmware such
+as Libreboot, and the regions in flash are all read-write (which implies that
+you have a neutered Intel ME image, via `me_cleaner`).
+
+Libreboot's build system automatically neuters the ME with `me_cleaner` when
+building for this board.
+
+NOTE: [Insert vendorfiles](ivy_has_common.md) is also valid, on release ROMs,
+but again `vendorfiles/cache/x201_factory.rom` must be present - Libreboot's
+build system will automatically pull `me.bin` from it, during build time.
