Technologies are provided herein for configuring aspects of the operation of a server computer using a service processor. The service processor includes a processor, a NAND flash memory organized using a file system, and a hardware data communications interface coupled to the host computer. The file system is utilized to store a monolithic image file containing software components for configuring the operation of the host computer and the service processor. A firmware is also provided that executes on the processor to expose the NAND flash memory to the host processor as a storage device on the hardware interface, to receive storage requests from the host computer, and to generate offsets into the monolithic image file for performing the storage requests. The image file may be utilized to store an operating system, hardware drivers, and a host configuration tool executable by the host computer.
