hmmmmmmmmm, you know, I dont get it well, why there is 3 files when I
build linux bios?
docipl - is only for Disk on Chip (so I dont need it)
linuxbios.strip - to boot linux bios
vmlinux.bin.gz - kernel image.
then I suspect I could get rid of docipl file, concatenate
linuxbios.strip and then vmlinux.bin.gz so I would have a single flash
image ready to be burned. Then I download Bios Update utility from the
motherboard manufacturer's site (PC Chips) and burn the flash ......
would you think it could work?
