Hi,

IIRC the modern boards that support 2MB flash roms (and I thought 
it were 2MBit) ususally make use of it. There are emergency setups 
that let you boot from floppy and reflash in case the Bios update 
process failed, as well as software reaid functionality and I have 
one board that supports tty controlling of the Bios setup, POST and 
boot process. Newer Bios update files with up to 250KB have been 
seen. Be careful.

I do not know how to do it anyway.
