Here is an alternative way to construct elliptic fibrations of quartic surfaces containing a line. Let $X\subset \mathbb P^3$ be a smooth quartic surface and assume that it contains a line $L\subset X$. Let $\mathfrak d$ denote the $1$-dimensional linear system of hyperplanes in $\mathbb P^3$ containing $L$ restricted to $X$. Further let $H\in \mathfrak d$ and $E=H-L$. Observe that $E^2=H^2-2H\cdot L L^2= 4 - 2\times 1 -2=0$ and that by construction $\dim |E|\geq 1$. It follows that for any $E_1,E_2\in |E|$, $E_1\cap E_2=\emptyset$ and hence $|E|$ is basepoint-free and $\dim |E|=1$. Therefore $|E|$ defines a morphism $f: X\to \mathbb P^1$ and it follows from the construction that the fibers of $f$ are cubic plane curves, so this is indeed an elliptic fibration. --- **Remark 1:** One can get more data out of this construction. 1. Since each fiber is a plane cubic, this construction limits the possible singularities of the fibers quite a bit. 2. The line we started with is a triple section. 3. If $X$ contains another line, say $C$, such that $C\cap L=\emptyset$ then $C$ gives a section of $f$: Indeed if $C$ is a line, then $C\cdot H=1$ and if $C\cap L=\emptyset$, then $C\cdot E=1$. 4. If $X$ contains another line, say $C$, such that $C\cap L\neq\emptyset$, then $C$ is contained in a fiber intersecting $L$ exactly once. 5. You can keep playing with this to get more. **Remark 2:** For an elliptic K3 the Picard number is at least $2$ and if it is exactly $2$, then it admits at most two different elliptic fibrations. If the Picard number is at least $3$, then an elliptic K3 may admit infinitely many elliptic fibrations, so obviously in many cases you don't get all the elliptic fibrations this way. **Remark 3:** Finally, note that the Fermat quartic contains lines: Using *diverietti*'s notation the 16 lines $$\ell_{\xi,\xi'}=\big\{[a:\xi a:b:\xi' b] \ \vert\ [a:b]\in \mathbb P^1\big\}$$ where $\xi,\xi'$ are 4$^\text{th}$ roots of unity all lie on that Fermat quartic, so one obtains 16 different elliptic fibrations this way. Further note that if $\xi\neq \xi''$ and $\xi'\neq \xi'''$, then $\ell_{\xi,\xi'}\cap \ell_{\xi'',\xi'''}=\emptyset$, so this way we get a couple of sections for each of the elliptic fibrations as described above.
