Hi-
Apparently Matthew ([email protected]) made some modifications to allow
booting OS X without Clover. I'm not sure if his changes are current or if
they're specific to the X210 which they were made on / for, but I had the
same question and that was the answer I got at the time. Never tried it
though, I'd suggest you ask him for the details, as I don't have any
specifics.

Cheers,
R
