It looks like the X230 already has a large flash chip (BOARD_ROMSIZE_12288?). 
How big were you thinking? The main issue would be that chips bigger than 16MB 
use 4-byte addresses and the SPI controller in Ivy Bridge probably only 
supports 3-byte addresses.

Subject: [coreboot] ThinkPad X230 alternative flash chips?

Hello, does someone know if it is possible to solder a bigger flash
chip onto ThinkPad X230? Would it work? It would be awesome if I could
fit a bigger kernel as a payload...
