Programming the Flash Module
The Flash Module and adapter must already be installed before you
can program the Flash Module.
You must also configure your PC to start up from the network in
order for the DHCP or RPL process to work. See your PC
documentation for more information about configuring start-up
options.
Note: Only one adapter in your system can be programmed with
the DHCP or RPL image. Only one adapter performs the DHCP or
RPL boot operation.

Insert the Flash Utility diskette in your PC diskette drive and
power on your system.
Note: The Flash Utility Diskette is a bootable diskette.
Booting from diskette is the default configuration for
most PCs. If the configuration for your PC has been
changed, it must be configured so that the diskette
drive is the device from which a boot is attempted. See
your PC documentation for more information about
configuring start-up options.
The Flash Utility will run an automatic test to verify that there is
a valid, working adapter installed in your PC.
If the test fails, verify that you are using one of the IBM
adapters that supports this Flash module. If you are using a
valid adapter, refer to the adapter's installation and user's guide
for additional testing and debugging information.
