Recovering BIOS
If your BIOS has become corrupted, such as from a power failure during a flash
update, you can recover your BIOS using the recovery boot block and a BIOS flash
diskette.
Note:
You can obtain a BIOS flash diskette image in one of the following ways:
v
Download a BIOS flash diskette from the Web site at:
www.ibm.com/storage/support/nas
v
Contact your IBM service representative.
The flash memory contains a protected area that cannot be overwritten. The
recovery boot block is a section of code in this protected area that enables the
