I still would check with the manufacturer or reseller what kind of firmware they use. I would expect any modern laptop would come with a new UEFI-compliant firmware and not the old fashioned BIOS. I suspect that model would come with legacy mode (Lenovo uses the term CSM -Compatibility Support Module). I am not sure about the status of Netbsd with UEFI firmware but I am sure somebody will clarify this point. -- Ottavio
