    (OP)
    Sorry for that question (is probably answered already). does /R write 15 banks with the original bios renamed to bios.bak??? Or is restore simply a command that flashes *.bak the same way than /U ?

    To flash 15 banks instead of 14 there is hopfully just one byte needed to change??? NO? from E to F?

    Yes, this version ignore signature. But this version only display a full log with debug message. This hpqflash don't update SLIC to 2.1.

    Put the BIOS image (and nothing else) on a USB floppy...

    From a powered off state hold down all 4 arrow keys and then power on. Just wait and the floppy will start to read. You can let go once the floppy is spinning.

    Found the 4 arrows easier than Fn + B.
