Recovering the BIOS

It is unlikely that anything will interrupt the BIOS upgrade; however, if an
interruption occurs, the BIOS may be damaged. In that case, you must
recover the BIOS.
The procedure for recovering the BIOS is detailed in "Recovery Boot
Jumper" on page 75. After performing the procedure, leave the upgrade
disk in drive A and turn on the server, then continue with the BIOS upgrade
(see "Upgrading the BIOS" on page 98).

Changing the BIOS Language

You can use the BIOS upgrade utility to change the language the BIOS
displays. Use a bootable diskette containing the flash utility and language
files (see "Creating the BIOS Upgrade Diskette" on page 99).
To Change the BIOS Language

upgrade utility screen appears.
