Introduction
This guide shows how to update the latest UEFI for your motherboard. You will need bootable UEFI update CD image and USB flash drive.

Install grub4dos to USB drive
user $ wget http://download.gna.org/grub4dos/grub4dos-0.4.4.zip user $ unzip grub4dos-0.4.4.zip user $ cd grub4dos-0.4.4 root # ./bootlace.com /dev/sdb root # mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb root # cp grldr menu.lst /mnt/usb/
Copy bootable UEFI update CD image to USB drive
root # cp ~/Downloads/1yuj18us.iso /mnt/usb/
Configure grub4dos
root # nano /mnt/usb/menu.lst <pre> title thinkpad-bios map (hd0,0)/1yuj18us.iso (hd32) map --hook chainloader (hd32) boot </pre>
