I also have one of the Advantech boards I am trying to flash the BIOS on. ASMB-913I. Has anyone had any luck finding a bios image for this? I have root access to the system, and ipmi administrative access. The ipmi looks like it has been customized to remove all bios interaction. The boot device has been locked to a single pci m.2 card, and any changes to that require a bios password. Really stuck on this one so far. I downloaded something for an ipmi firmware flash from advantech's website, but it appears to not be a valid flash image, an ima file extentions. I tried to flash the BMC through ipmitool in linux, but no dice.

classic reviving an old thread for help

did anyone figure out anything for the Advantech boards?

I went as far as emailing them to see if they would provide me a clean bios rom file as I do have a rom flasher but nothing back yet. (same issue as described above, the file on there website is not actually a bios file some package file for many different boards)

the IMA file is 32 M Bites and the bios chip is 16 M Bites (128 M bit)

I even went as far as unpacking the IMA file to see if the individual bios was contained within but could not fine any files that seemed to be correct
