Abstract
A system for distributing a basic input output system (BIOS), comprising a BIOS settings system configured to receive BIOS settings data, a BIOS binary system configured to receive BIOS binary code, a processor configured to load BIOS firmware from a memory and a code packager coupled to the memory, the code packager configured to combine the BIOS settings data and the BIOS binary code, to generate the BIOS firmware and to store the BIOS firmware in the memory.
Claims18
A system for distributing a basic input output system (BIOS), comprising:
- a BIOS settings system configured to receive BIOS settings data;
- a BIOS binary system configured to receive BIOS binary code;
- a processor configured to load BIOS firmware from a memory;
- and
