These recovery features are usually software only. Ie. they will be overwritten if you use flashrom to write LinuxBIOS. Uwe's suggestion to get a second flash chip for experimenting is really very good. That way you don't have to worry about making the system unbootable. This is an Intel chipset so you need FWH flash chips. SST49LF004B-33-4C-NHE will work well for you. Is the flash chip socketed on your mainboard? Look at linuxbios.org/FAQ for help with finding out. //Peter -- linuxbios mailing list linuxbios@linuxbios.org http://www.linuxbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
