Thanks, here my questions:
- How do I get an ioreg list to check IMEI and see if I fixed my Bios, before I continue doing any test, please?
One easy way to check for IMEI is to use 'lspci -nn' in Linux Terminal.
- What range of values for ig-platform-id should I try according to your suggestion
You can extract all ig-platform-id from the framebuffer kext and try them all.
(you can also look at the connector data for each to find those that have 0306).
But 0x59120000 has all three external connectors (0105, 0204, 0306).
- I reset bios trying to fix the problem but nothing fixed. Now I have to find a flash to fix it! I do not know which one to get
If this is a cheap Chinese computer, it may not have IMEI (it is typical... I think Intel only grants license to those who pay for it).
- How can I tell if I have a ES/QS cpu?
Seems unlikely...
- I wonder how could I boot os x before without IMEI? Was'nt there one present at that time to be able to operate? Now I cannot even boot with any of my backups!
No idea. It could be that a BIOS flash damaged the IMEI firmware, and now it is gone.
Note that boot is still possible (with no IMEI) with invalid ig-platform-id or in safe mode.
