METHOD OF FLASHING BIOS USING SERVICE PROCESSOR AND COMPUTER SYSTEM USING THE SAME

摘要

A method of flashing a BIOS memory of a computer system is described herein. The method includes executing a kernel of baseboard management controller (BMC) to create a partition for the BMC memory and a second partition for the BIOS memory; detecting whether the host processor is accessing the BIOS memory; controlling a multiplexer (MUX) to allow the first processor to access the BIOS memory when the host processor is not accessing the BIOS memory; and retrieving first BIOS software from the BMC memory and writing the first BIOS software to the BIOS memory.
