[tlinux-users:02633] Another BIOS update question     21 Aug 2002
Greetings.

Am a bit crestfallen since my new Toshiba Satellite 1905-S277 has a Phoenix
BIOS. I reckon this means that I cannot use the tosh utils written by
Mr.Buzzard.

Was wondering if I could safely flash to a newer BIOS which would allow me to
use these.

Any suggestions ?
Could any one point me to the BIOS upgrade in question ?
Can this model sport a Toshiba BIOS v2.0?
Why does Toshiba provide a different BIOS ? I mean, why Phoenix ?

Any help would be appreciated as always.

Those laptops are actually manufactured by Compal <http://www.compal.com>.
Toshiba is 'only' a reseller for them. You can not have a
Toshiba BIOS on them, nor use the tosh utilties made by J.A. Buzzard.
