Hi all,

Supermicro has just sent me an DOS image that does work. It is a hack, but
clearly one that works and probably will work for all BIOses. As their
autoexec.bat they use the following:

-------------------------------------------
set EXPAND=YES
SET DIRCMD=/O:N
cls
a:\findramd
set RAMD=C

copy a:\dpr\*.* c:\*.*

C:

phlash /s /x /mode=3 /mfg xdpr6243.rom

--------------------------------------------


config.sys:
--------------------------------------------
device=himem.sys /testmem:off
files=10
buffers=10
dos=high,umb
stacks=9,256
device=ramdrive.sys /E 2048

---------------------------------------------

So you'll need findramd.exe (not sure if that is part of DOS or not),
ramdrive.sys & himem.sys.
