Hello, i am looking for a person to guide me to flash Intel D945GCLF, thinkpad t400 bios with libreboot.

So far i have:

Arduino Uno
Raspberry Pi 2
Soic 16 clip

I am not sure about my setup, and not sure what to do, i am not a programmer, but i have a strong need to do it by myself and willing to do wire transaction for your guidance, thanks.

Installation of libreboot is probably https://libreboot.org/ along with whatever support resources.

I wouldn't ask for help in forum if i was so smart to do it by reading documentation, i am reading it for 3 years and still without libreboot :), it's time to ask questions because there's no in depth information of flashing Intel D945GCLF,
I need someone who can explain for me more in depth, step by step and guide me while i am flashing, i willing to pay for it. Also i don't want it to leave it for someone for flashing, it's about learning experience.

So let's go further, can't i use rasberry pi 2 or arduino uno?
I need only beaglebone or teensy 3.1 to for flashing Intel D945GCLF?
Isn't it about development board, but how i setup it?

I heard that programmers can use almost any development board to flash libreboot, it's just that in tutorial used only beaglebone, is that right?

So okay, let's go to the point, i have Intel D945GCLF and Thinkpad t400 and i want to flash bios with libreboot.
For Intel D945GCLF i need 8 soic clip, i have only soic 16 for thinkpad t400.
I have Arduino and raspberry pi 2, is that enough to flash one of them?
If no then what i need more? I will buy.
If yes then what are the next steps? I am kinda lost now.

I suggest you to ask https://libreboot.org directly or see technical
support at https://minifree.org. I believe you could buy tools from
them as well.

Hm, sorry to hear that. Alternatively, you can find more flashing
services at Zerocat and such companies:
- http://www.zerocat.org
- https://libiquity.com
- https://www.flashedtech.com/flashing-services

I believe there are still more services but either I forgot or I do
not know them. I wish you success.

You may want to contact trisquel forum member Libreshop: https://trisquel.info/en/users/libreshop/contact
Personal web page: https://libreshop.eu/
contact: info at libreshop dot eu

Libreshop seems to have the requisite libreboot know-how, along with an interest in helping people libreboot their devices as a paid service.
