LSI Logic recommends that you view the board summary (option 3) and
perform a backup (option 2) prior to updating the flash. The view
identifies the SCSI controller, its Device ID, the Flash ROM, and the
current BIOS version. The backup stores the old BIOS image currently
residing in the flash ROM to the diskette. In the event that there are
problems with the new image, you can get back to the original one.

To update the current SCSI BIOS, follow these steps:

Step 1.

Choose option 1 to give you a summary of boards.

Step 2.

Press the space bar to mark/select at least one, even if there
is only one to choose from.

Step 3.

Press Enter.

A new window appears asking for the file name of the BIOS to
upgrade.

Step 4.

Type the filename at the

A:\

prompt and press Enter

or

Press F2 to view the available files on the diskette. If you press
F2, the available files should be: the BIOS file just backed up
and 8XX BIOS image files. Highlight the 8XX BIOS image file
(

*.ROM

) and press Enter.

The utility displays the filename and notifies you when the file
is successfully read.

Step 5.

Press Enter to continue.

The system prompts you whether or not to overwrite the BIOS
that is currently flashed in.

Step 6.

Select

Y

to upgrade.

This erases and updates the flash ROM.

The system displays the card information and verifies that the
new BIOS is flashed.

Step 7.

Press any key to get back to the Main menu.

Step 8.

Choose option 5 to reboot.

Step 9.

Remove the diskette if you want to boot from the hard drive.
