I'd like to thank all that have worked on the flashing. I've flashed an IBM 1015 to IT on a Lenovo TS140. It is a bare TS140 with just the 1015 card in the PCI-e x 16 slot. I used another laptop running Win 7 for download etc. Procedure that worked for me (flashing to P19,as I saw some people mention problems with P20): TS140 -I first updated the TS140 to latest bios -have CSM enabled to boot from DOS (and UEFI was enabled) Other pc -Download LSI MegaRAID to SAS2008(P11).zip - Unzip and open "_ReadMeFirst.txt" for instructions -Format USB stick and transfer files as per instructions TS140 -Change boot order to USB and run 1.bat, 2.bat, 3.bat -For some reason 3.bat failed the first time, but on second try, it worked. -For 5.IT, I got the PAL error. Other pc -Read http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=25891.msg225711#msg225711 reply#4 i.e. do the rest of the steps via UEFI. -As the TS140 does not have an integrated UEFI shell (can't boot to shell), download UEFI shell v1 from Archlinux site (although TS140 has UEFI 2.3, so shell V2 would be more compatible - didn't try V2), rename the shell to bootx64.efi , and place as follows on USB used above: \efi\boot\bootx64.efi (as required by TS140 instruction manual). -For some reason I downloaded the P15 versions of the firmware/bios and UEFI loader (maybe because I read somewhere that a two step process works i.e. P15->P19- it may work directly to P19 - I didn't try that). TS140 -disable CSM - only UEFI enabled - boot to USB and follow the reply #4 instructions - for P15 - immediatelly afterwards for P19 Thanks again, to everyone for the help
