Is there a way to remove libreboot and go back to the original BIOS on my thinkpad? It came preinstalled when I bought it along with Manjaro Linux for some reason.

It involves some custom hardware. Look up how to flash Libreboot to your ThinkPad, but instead find and flash the original BIOS.

Also obligatory "but why Anon?"

>While backing up the proprietary BIOS image might be construed as "endorsing" proprietary software: This BIOS image is unique to every motherboard. It will be impossible to restore the original BIOS once it is lost. Back it up now or you will lose it forever. Do not take this decision lightly.

It doesn't work for me for some reason. I select the operating system from the menu and it shows a black screen after that. It worked twice, but out of like the hundreds of times I have to turn the computer on and off constantly. Too much of a headache.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
