Updating BIOS With UBIOS 17-10
17.02 UBIOS - BATCH MODE
While files can be manually selected using the Interactive Mode, Flash BIOS Update or
Copy can be achieved through Batch Mode.
17.02.1 BATCH MODE COMMAND LINE PARAMETERS
The command line format is as follows:
UBIOS -B [operation] [filetype] [filename] [options]
where:
[operation] is the Flash BIOS operation you wish to perform, and can be replaced
with one of two letters: U for Update, or
C for Copy.
[filetype] is the filetype of the BIOS file to program (with an update operation) or to
create (with a copy operation), and can be replaced with one of the
following:
ALL for All BIOS files in a single file with the .BIN
extension,
VGA for VGA BIOS file with the .BFP or .VGA extension,
TEKNOR for TEKNOR's BIOS extension with the .EXT
extension,
MAIN for Main BIOS with the .ROM extension.
[filename] is the name of the BIOS file to program (with an update operation) or
to create (with a copy operation), and can be replaced with the filename
which corresponds to the filetype. For example, if "VGA" was listed as
filetype, then the filename could be "FLAT.BFP".
[options] these are optional parameters that may be added:
/C This option will no clear the CMOS Setup when updating main
BIOS (AMIBIOS), however this is not recommended since the
CMOS Setup should be updated when the main BIOS is changed.
/R Instructs UBIOS to reset the board upon completion of an
operation.
/VT This option allows a visual monitoring of the Flash BIOS
update/copy operation in VT100 mode.
