Lenovo Ideapad K1 Ubuntu Touch - Thinkpad Tablet General

Hello there,
I tried to figure out what I could use my old Ideapad K1 for and tried to install Ubuntu Touch.
Has anyone tried that yet?
My problem was to get to fastboot.
I am running the Android 4.2.2 CM10.1 ROM from Kaschemme. As soon as I use
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
it reboots to recovery.
Is this because the bootloader is still locked? Any Idea howto unlock it?
If anyone is curious, here is the Ubuntu guide.
Thx in advance!

[Q] Not able to boot my phone into recovery

Hello Everyone,
I have been using CM7 for a long time on my ZTE Blade Gen II.
But recently I tried installing CM 10 Kang development.
After installing it, I am not able to boot into recovery.
When I open Clockwork Mod, it says my phone sis not rooted.
I tried rooting my phone again using Z4root, but am not able to.
My phone's ram is only 256 thus it is not able to load jellybean properly.
I also tried booting through cmd by using adb bootloader, it says more than one device and emulator and fails to rebooot or root my phone.
Can anybody help me get my phone back to CM 7 and get it rooted again.
Thanks,
Himanshu

Get phone in fastboot mode.
Plug it in to PC.
Get boot.img and recovery.img (if there is one) from CM7 Rom.
Open ADB.
Type in commands:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot.img
fastboot flash recovery.img (if there is one)
Then you get in recovery and can install the CM7 rom.

[HELP!] Halfbricked my Kindle Fire HD 7. Can only access TWRP.

Hello,
Yesterday i tried to load a Cyanogenmod custom Rom on my Kindle Fire HD (7") and followed an instruction to do so. I rooted the Device via ADB and FlashFire11. The KindleFireFirstAide tool was part of the tutorial but i didn't really understand how to use it. However, in FireFlash11 i installed a file called kfhd7-freedom-boot-7.4.3.img as the main Boot section and a file called kfhd7-twrp-2.4.4.0-recovery.img as recovery section. Before that i put a file with the custom ROM (cm-10.2-20131115-UNOFFICIAL-tate) on the sdcard.
Everything worked fine (after some troubleshooting) and finally i booted with that blue "Kindle Fire"-symbol. In the TWRP (v2.4.4.0) menu i installed the custom ROM. everything worked fine. Android loaded safely.
My mistake was that i wanted to install a new version of the cyanogenmod (cm-11-20131126-UNOFFICIAL-tate.zip). I wiped all the userdata and tried to insall it via TWRP. But this time it said "Fail".
Now i have no ROM installed. The Device will only boot into TWRP.
The only ROM i have saved to the SDcard is the failing ROM. Under the point "reboot" in the TWRP menu i can choose "Bootloader" wich works.
I desperately tried figuring out how to get the files from a working ROM on the device to install it via TWRP, but i cant access the device via ABD. But one thing does work: If i set the device to "Bootloader"-Mode, i can access it via KFFirstAide. With option 10 of the KFFA i can reboot the Kindle in normal mode. This proofs to me, that i can access the Device in a way. Isn't it possible to send the working ROM Data to the Device via Fastboot?
Sorry for my limited knowledge in this area. And sorry for my bad English, i'm from germany
Would be so nice if anyone could help me. If you need more information on my case i will post it immediately.
For clarification:
I need to know how i can load a custom ROM on the Device to Flash the Device Succesfully. Unfortunately the Device doesn't appear in the Drive Selection of my Windows (8.1). In the Device Manager it is featured as "Kindle Fire HD 7" with a little triangle. During boot the Kindle appears for short period of time as ADB-Device.
I need access to the SDcard of the device to load the working ROM on it. But how do i get access?
EDIT2:
I found a thread about fastboot commands. There is a command as following: fastboot -i 0x1949 update <filename>. Is this a way to install a ROM using fastboot, or is there no way to install a ROM via fastboot?
SOLVED:
I found out that the device had to be accessable (ADB) while in recovery. So looked at my ADB drivers. in a thread there was posted, that TWRP 2.4.4.0 is to old for the newest ADB-driver (which i had installed). So i installed older ADB drivers. Then the device was recognized as ADB Interface. I used the command "adb push" to load the working files to the sdcard. In TWRP installed the Cyanogenmod and now everything boots and works fine
thanks

Mac driver for OPT

Hello guys, I just unlocked bootloader and try to flash twrp on my brand new OPT. The problem is that osx doesn't recognize the device (./adb devices find nothing).
So when I try to flash recovery it does it, but it doesn't work at the same time.
Any idea to solve this? Where I can find drivers for mac?
Thanks!
edit: I managed to let the device recognized, but even if I flash twrp, I have the stock recovery.
