"The ME code to start the platform is in (on-chip) ROM and a failed
signature check of the (compressed with AFAIK still unknown codebook)
ME code in flash just means that the ME considers the system broken
and allows it to run for a little while so that a human can repair it."
So 1) will the system stay up with the ME software erased, 2) what's the ROM component doing besides managing the boot, and 3) what access does it take to alter the ME's firmware?
