Recovering the BIOS
It is unlikely that anything will interrupt the BIOS upgrade; however, if an interruption
occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. In that case, you must recover the BIOS.

The procedure for recovering the BIOS is covered in the SGI 1400 Server Family
Maintenance and Upgrades Guide. After doing the procedure, leave the upgrade disk in
drive A and turn on the server, then continue with the BIOS upgrade.
