but how to encapsulate the rom in the container is far from my knowledge (yet)
more information on FLB format:
Code:
IBABUILD EXAMPLES:
------------------
IBABuild is generally used in three different scenarios:
- To create an image file or files to be programmed into flash, either as
part of the NIC manufacturing process, or as part of the BIOS programming
process for LOMs.
- To create and program an image directly into a NIC.
- To program an arbitrary image file into a NIC.
While it is possible (and perhaps even probable) that IBABuild will be used
in other ways, these three scenarios capture the vast majority of IBABuild
uses.
A few examples of each scenario are given in this section. These examples
are not intended to be comprehensive and will not cover every possible
combination of IBABuild parameters. They are simply intended to illustrate
how the various parameters are used.
To create an image file containing SETUP, UNDI, and BC for use in a NIC based
on the 82540EM Ethernet controller:
IBABUILD -OF=NIC -IMAGE=SETUP,UNDI,BC -DEVID=100E
The output of this command is the file name BA????L2.NIC, where ???? is the
Intel Boot Agent version number for Gigabit adapters.
To create a minimum-size split ROM implementation for a LOM implementation of
the 82551QM Fast Ethernet controller:
IBABUILD -OF=LOM -IMAGE=BC
IBABUILD -OF=LOM -IMAGE=UNDI -DEVID=1229
These commands will create two files: BA????BC.LOM and Ba????X2.LOM,
where ???? is the Intel Boot Agent version number for Fast Ethernet adapters.
To program an UNDI/SETUP/BC image into all NICs in the system:
IBABUILD -ALL -IMAGE=UNDI,BC,SETUP
To program the file FOO.FLB into a NIC:
IBABUILD -NIC=1 -UPDATE=FOO.FLB
APPLICATION NOTE:
-----------------
The FLB file format allows up to 16 supported device IDs to be included in
the FLB file header structure. In order to support more than 16 device IDs,
Windows PROSet allows FLB images to be concatenated together. This is
accomplished by using IBABuild to generate two FLB images with support for
up to 16 devices each, and then concatenating the FLBs together using the
"copy" command as follows:
ibabuild -of=FLB -image=bc,undi,setup -devid=1008,1009,100C,100E
ren ba*l2.flb bal2-1.flb
ibabuild -of=FLB -image=bc,undi,setup -devid=107C,108A
ren ba*l2.flb bal2-2.flb
copy /b bal2-1.flb+bal2-2.flb ba1226l2.flb
LEGAL FLASH IMAGE COMBINATIONS
------------------------------
The following rules are used to determine if a flash image is valid:
- SETUP may not be in an image alone.
- BC may be put in a LOM image alone. (This is a split image.)
- UNDI may be put in a LOM image without BC. (This is the other half of a
split image.)
- Unless it is completely alone in a .LOM (split) image, BC must always be
accompanied by UNDI.
- If the image is .NIC, .FLB, or .HEX, and UNDI is present, BC must be present.
IMAGE FILE NAMING CONVENTIONS:
------------------------------
In order to be able to easily identify various versions of the boot agent for
different adapters, the flash image file name contains information about its
contents. The file name has the following format:
BAxyzztn.eee
where: x is the major version number of the agent in decimal
y is the minor version number of the agent in decimal
zz is the build number of the agent in decimal
t is the type of image
n is the adapter family the image supports
eee is the type of image file
Image types:
L - Monolithic PXE (UNDI+BC) with setup menu
Q - Monolithic PXE (UNDI+BC) without setup menu
T - Split PXE UNDI driver with setup menu. LOM only.
X - Split PXE UNDI driver without setup menu. LOM only.
BC - Split PXE Base Code image. No family is specified. LOM only.
Adapter families:
1 - Fast Ethernet
2 - Gigabit
4 - 10 Gigabit
Image type extensions:
FLB - Flash Library file supporting multiple NICs
NIC - Image file for use with a NIC
LOM - Image file for use with a LOM
HEX - Image file (NIC format) for use with flash programming tools
For example, build 18 of version 1.2 of the monolithic PRO/1000 adapter boot
agent would be named BA1218L2.FLB.
good test:
Code:
Intel's burning tool accepts only FLB files. The simplest wat to obtain FLB

im not that skilled with scripting that i can add a flb header to the rom, could someone with more hex knowledge have a look? :-)
