    A10 unlocked, trying to unlock A12 at the moment, but i'm trying to figure out why SVL7's BIOS is around 5mb while the OEM Dell image of A10 and A12 is around 9mb. I think there are padding files involving but I don't know how to remove them.

    So, for the moment, A10 unlocked. I'm working on A12 unlocked.
