Reprogramming from System Boot
When you reprogram from system boot, the American Megatrends Flash utility:
1.
reads S87P.ROM from the root directory of the floppy disk in drive A:,
2.
erases the Flash EPROM,
3.
programs the Flash EPROM with the data read from the floppy disk in drive A:, and
4.
generates a CPU reset, rebooting the system.
The AMIFlash portion of Flash EPROM is not programmed.
S87P.ROM
S87P.ROM resides on a floppy disk and contains the updated main BIOS code. American Megatrends will
provide this file when the AMIBIOS for the Series 87 Enterprise-IV EISA VLB motherboard must be
updated.
S87P.ROM must be present in the root directory of the floppy disk before the onboard Flash EPROM can
be reprogrammed. The file that has the main BIOS code must be named S87P.ROM.
