This package updates the basic input/output system (BIOS) on IBM NetVista 2254, 2256, 2257, 6029, 6336, 6337, 6339, 6341, 6342, 6346, 6347, and 6348 systems.

BIOS is programming that controls low-level hardware operations, including interactions with diskette drives, hard disk drives, and the keyboard. The BIOS is stored on a chip. Your computer uses flash BIOS, which can be updated through a program on a flash diskette so that you do not have to replace the BIOS chip to update the BIOS.

Note: Make note of any settings you have changed in the BIOS Configuration Utility. These settings may have to be re-entered after updating the BIOS.

Print this file so that you can refer to it during the installation.
