To do this, run the utility> Bit14.exe a2h0213a.bin and in the file report1.dat (created by Bit14.exe) we look at the composition of the modules in our firmware.

The first step was to free up space for new module bootloader, because there were no free 30 Kb in the firmware. And therefore we will edit the firmware with "pens".

Since the firmware turned out to be Asus-Award - utilities (such as CBROM, MODBIN) after long searches, trials and failures for it were not found, they simply do not exist, and even if they exist, I did not come across.

If the microcircuit is soldered into the board, you need to unsolder it and install a socket (crib) into which you can easily insert a backup copy of Bios, in case of not restarting the computer after the firmware. The first and the most important point That is, you need to stock up on a second BIOS chip with the firmware that is used in your computer now. Without the participation of Roman would not have been born this topic and the bootloader would not appear in the Asus A2H / L Bios firmware. I will not dwell on the capabilities of this bootloader, there is plenty of information on it on the net.īefore I start, I want to express my deepest gratitude to Roman (nickname apple_rom) for the help, technical and moral support.

The CD drive gave its soul to God for a long time.īut the OS needs to be installed somehow, so it was decided to integrate (file) into Bios the Plop Boot Manager bootloader - “a small bootloader that loads anything from anything”. (in the Boot section it is possible to enable boot from a USB_ZIP device) and give it a USB flash drive up to 1Gb, no more.

This is due to the fact that native firmware ASUS A2500H / L is not very good at booting from USB, or rather (in my opinion) it cannot boot at all, because all my efforts ended in nothing. Modification of the BIOS firmware of the ASUS A2500H / L laptop, namely, we add the “Plop Boot Manager” bootloader to the BOOT firmware. Create multiboot USB HDD or Plop boot manager flash drive install USB flash drive But it is very necessary to boot from USB.
