In my tinkering with EFI I attempted to flash some backdoored firmware to a test MacBook that was kindly donated to science by a friend of mine. This resulted in the bastard doing the S.O.S. beeps and not booting, and it didn’t seem to be recoverable using the Firmware Restore CDs from Apple. I decided that since it was dead anyway I might as well try and recover it by re-flashing the firmware manually using the nifty Bus Pirate that I impulse-bought not long ago, and a copy of flashrom.

Then, they threw it ALL away for Mac OS X, ironically right about the time when an appearance-agnostic API would make a lot of sense. That's almost 20 years ago, and for very good reasons: moving to a whole new OS, with a new graphics pipeline and UI engine, and one they especially wanted to tout. A little bastard is a term of endearment reserved for the offspring a couple that loves each other deeply. Explore the world of Mac. Check out MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, iMac, Mac mini, and more.

First things first - an appropriate beer:

Next, I disassembled the MacBook with the help of the iFixit MacBook take apart guide (wasn’t exactly the right model, but close enough). Here’s the remains of the machine after I removed the logic board:

I had to hunt around on the board a bit to find the flash that contains the EFI firmware, but knowing the model number from when I bricked it helped. Found it!

Now that I’d found the flash I had to wire up the Bus Pirate and hope the chip would be programmable in-circuit without any hassles:

After a few false starts and some confusion with wiring between Bus Pirate versions, flashrom detected the chip:

Looking good! So next I read back the dodgy firmware to make sure it looked like everything was working OK:

This took a good half hour plus, maybe 45 minutes. Apparently there are some recent Bus Pirate speedups for flashrom but I didn’t wanna mess with it since it was working. A quick look at the firmware that was read back, and it looks OK compared to the original one that I read before flashing the dodgy one:

Time to write the original firmware back to the flash chip:

This took about 3 times as long as the read, as it had to read the flash back, erase the chip (which was pretty quick), write the new firmware, and then read the firmware back again to verify the write. After reassembling the machine:

It booted first go! I was honestly pretty surprised that I didn’t destroy something. Unfortunately the screen backlight is broken (which is why it was donated to science in the first place), so it’s a bit hard to see that it still works:

The Standard Roman character set, often called Mac OS Romanor MacRoman, is an 8-bit character set used in older Macintoshoperating systems to display Western characters. It has since beenreplaced by Unicode (UTF-8).

It is an extension of both US ASCII and earlier Mac OScharacter sets and is identical to ASCII for the first 128 characters.It also resembles the Latin-1 character set, including manyaccented characters and a number of additional symbols, though the twosets don't include all of the same symbols. Latin-1 and Mac OS Roman alsodiffer on the characters assigned to numbers. For example, smallletter 'a' with an acute accent (á) is decimal 225 in Latin-1,but is decimal 135 in Mac OS Roman.

The following table describes the Mac OS Roman character set, associatingthe decimal and hexadecimal equivalents with descriptionsof the characters. Also included are the keystrokes for all printingand a few non-printing characters used with Apple's US Englishkeyboard layout. Not all fonts can represent all characters, whilesome fonts will represent alternate characters.
