Facelift le bios.

Y'a des jours ou tu te dit que l'affreux BIOS complètement bancal qui te gratifie d'un logo pixellisé à  mort  mérite un traitement choc.

Ben ce jour est arrivé.  

Enfin presque, je vais PROBABLEMENT devoir ouvrir cette machine pour réparer/remplacer le lecteur de disquette (Floppy). 

Avis: la plupart de ces pages proposent des techniques qui ont un potentiel de destruction de données, matériel et plus. Vous êtes avertis.

I've just downloaded this modded BIOS (HP Compaq nx7300 Notebook PC) but after rebooting still with SLIC 2.0...

BEFORE using this manual method look the MODED BIOS's LIST (http://forums.mydigitallife.info/showpost.php?p=111460&postcount=290).

And read this HP BIOS RECOVERY PROCEDURE (http://forums.mydigitallife.info/showpost.php?p=112105&postcount=308)

SLIC 2.1 BIOS update for Laptop HP NC6400

0- download SLIC2.1 collection from Here (http://forums.mydigitallife.info/showthread.php?t=5952) and extract the file Hp[HPQOEMSLIC-MPC-HPQ]2.1.BIN
1- download HxDEN here (http://mh-nexus.de/en/programs.php)
2- download the original BIOS sp36877 (http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareDescription.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=1847703&prodNameId=1847704&swEnvOID=2096&swLang=8&mode=2&taskId=135&swItem=ob-54183-1) this one is for HP NC6400 only
3- Once HPQFlash is launched press "Next"
4- in HxDEN: open Hp[HPQOEMSLIC-MPC-HPQ]2.1.BIN, select and copy from HPQOEMSLIC-MPCWINDOWS to the end (170 octets)
5- in HxDEN: open RAM and load HPQFlash.exe
search the string HPQOEMSLIC, select from HPQOEMSLIC-MPCWINDOWS to 1C and replace (paste) theses 170 octets
save changes and close HxDEN
6- in HPQlash windows press "Next" -> updating ROM starts
7- after rebooting SLIC 2.1 is here (check with this TOOL (http://forums.mydigitallife.info/showthread.php?t=6925))

For VISTA/WINDOWS7 HxDen has to be started as Administrator

A great thanks to all who contributes to this result.

This method can be used for other HP models, unfortunately if you find 2 occurrences of the marker (HPQOEMSLIC-MPCWINDOWS....) in your bios file like 6910p, 6710b, 6715b, the SLIC table will remain in version 2.0 after reboot.


I've tried also this method but still not updates SLIC to 2.1. (HP Compaq nx7300 Notebook PC)
How do I update SLIC to 2.1???

Thanx

Hi,

That's sound for me a problem of SLP validation in BIOS. You need a HP DMI TOOL HPBI103.EXE to override this protection.

You have first to build a Bootable DOS floppy or USB pen (http://rapidshare.com/files/113917960/HP_USB_Disk_Storage_Format_Tool.rar) with everyting on it (http://rapidshare.com/files/113919628/MiniDOS.rar) and launch the command HPBI103 read slp, if it is disable, enter HPBI103.EXE write slp on.

MiniDOS:
http://rapidshare.com/files/113919628/MiniDOS.rar


regards

After using this method (and I think it worked) do I have to "close" the write slp function, by booting the same way and entering HPBI103.EXE write slp OFF or there's no need to do it?

Thanx

hello,

to make your SLIC table visible the right command is HPBI103.EXE write slp ON, and use SlicDumptoolkit to check.

Annita

17 Sep 2010, 07:47 PM

I've done that and updated the BIOS and it's working, the SLIC shows 2.1.
What I mean is if I need to turn this option to OFF again or leave it always ON???

17 Sep 2010, 07:58 PM

You want to have it ON, just leave it alone now

We can see that many users facing problems with SLP validation certainly because they received the laptop with LINUX. To avoid this,I've incl a modification in all BIOS from this LIST (http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/7681-This-is-no-request-thread!-HP-COMPAQ-bioses-how-to-modify-the-bios?p=111460#post111460).
From now the tool HPBI103.exe (write SLP ON) is useless.

For those interested by the how to:

The call to "SLP state" sub prog is replaced by some Nop's

Here is an exemple from hp6910p, for other models it is quite same.

mov dword ptr [esi+88h], 0
clc
mov ax, 1
call sub_107C0 ; test if SLP ON
jb short loc_101D1 ; jmp if not
push esi
push edi
push ds
push es
push es
mov ax, 1
push 0F389h
call far ptr 0F000h:30E7h
pop es
assume es:nothing
cld
mov ecx, 9Ch ; 156 octets
mov esi, 0FFFE6300h
mov edi, 0B874h
rep movs byte ptr es:[edi], byte ptr [esi]
cld
mov ecx, 0B6h ; 182 octets
mov esi, 0FFFE6200h ; marker table address


And after modification:

mov dword ptr [esi+88h], 0
clc
mov ax, 1
nop
nop
clc
jb short loc_101D1 ; never jump because of clc
push esi
push edi
push ds
push es
push es
mov ax, 1
push 0F389h
call far ptr 0F000h:30E7h
pop es
assume es:nothing
cld
mov ecx, 9Ch ; 156 octets
mov esi, 0FFFE6300h
mov edi, 0B874h
rep movs byte ptr es:[edi], byte ptr [esi]
cld
mov ecx, 0B6h ; 182 octets
mov esi, 0FFFE6200h ; marker table address

Depending of the model the call "jb short loc_101D1" have been also replaced by Nop's

something similar to fakeap.pl from the good folks at Black Alchemy. Their fakeap.pl is a version that works with Prism chipset wireless cards.

Demande des testeurs

This will generate fully random (wireless) MAC addresses, no WEP (open), full power, use a random assortment of the built-in default ESSIDs, sleep for the default (0.6 sec) between generations, and use all available channels. The MACs will, in all likelihood, almost never be repeated so any scanners will see a nearly infinite number of APs if they watch long enough.

# ALT+SYSRQ+B (reboots the system, without the previous steps this would be a hard reset).

Si vous êtes le seul utilisateur de votre machine et si vous travaillez uniquement avec un nombre restreint de langues, vous pouvez gagner beaucoup de place en supprimant les fichiers de paramètres régionaux inutiles. 


Le paquet localepurge fait ce travail très proprement.




     apt-get install localepurge





N'oubliez pas de choisir les paramètres régionaux que vous voulez conserver ! En cas de problème, les fichiers de paramètres régionaux supprimés peuvent être récupérés uniquement en réinstallant tous les paquets déjà installés (opération un peu longue). 




Un autre paquet associé aux paramètres régionaux est localeconf. 


Pour l'instant, je ne lui ai trouvé strictement aucune utilité (rien de plus que ce que propose le debconf de locales). ..

From a root shell, edit the file '/ramdisk/skyrix/skyrix41/documents/17780.defaults' and add a new line containing just the string
language = English;
to the end of the file, just before the '}' (close-curly-brace) which denotes the end of the configuration information. This should cause the 'andrea' account to use English labels from the start. Do the same thing to the files 10000.defaults and 17210.defaults to change the default language for the 'root' and 'hans' accounts, respectively.


http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/knoppix62-en.html 


Bonus Fedora: 


Try using these steps to change the FEDORA language setting from a command prompt:

 
Go to the Fedora system configuration diretory

1. cd /etc/sysconfig

 
Make backup copy of your language setting file


2. cp i18n i18n.backup

 
Edit language setting file to allow english as default

3. You can edit the file by using nano or vi text editors available on all Fedora systems from SSH. 




I prefer nano so:
4. nano i18n




5. Edit the file to include these lines as the first three lines of the file:

LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
SYSFONT="latarcyrheb-sun16"
SUPPORTED="en_US.UTF-8:en_US:en"



 
6. Save the file and restart system. 

If you can not restart the system you need to have permission to restart init.d

What do I need to fix to be able to use a RAM-backed filesystem?


From mdconfig(8):


-t type
Select the type of the memory disk.


malloc Storage for this type of memory disk is allocated with
malloc(9). This limits the size to the malloc bucket
limit in the kernel. If the -o reserve option is not
set, creating and filling a large malloc-backed memory
disk is a very easy way to panic a system.




It allocates kernel address space which is quite scarce on 32-bit
platforms. I'm not sure if it allocated physical memory. Given the
panicking behavior, I suspect that is deferred.


Yes, that's why -o reserve is recommended to allocate it all up-front.

J'ai testé un install2hdd malloc -o;
y'a skippé complètement la copie des fichiers...
Le script m'a aussi dit que l,install était réussie.

I believe this is mostly accurate. If you're actually out of memory,
there's a good chance you're going to be swapping anyway so this might
or might not actually cost you anything. If you have frequent, randomly
distributed access to the file system it's likely to be expensive. On
the other hand, if there are hot spots, the swapping may be beneficial
because it will allow other processes to proceed more efficiently.


Also in the case when you are not swapping, swap-backed md is actually faster than malloc backed.

En fait, dans mon cas spécifiquement, y'a bien un swap file, mais le live-cd s'en sert pas, même avec un swapon...  Bordel.

Really you need to make sure that whatever you use your system for, you have enough RAM that you never need to swap. Otherwise you're throwing away most of your system's performance for no good reason.

Hello,


I do not know if this is know behavior, and I know that 6.2 panic if the
memory disk got full,
but on 7-current the panic is before the disk got full.


Here is what I do:


mdconfig -a -t malloc -s 800m
newfs /dev/md0
mount /dev/md0 /mnt
cp 600mb.file /mnt

Si je suis pas dans le champs, le gars assignait ici 800 megs dans son malloc...

I really should read manuals more carefully :) Thanks for the information.


Just one more question - to prevent panic I should use "-o reserve" and have to increase:
vfs.maxmallocbufspace
vfs.bufmallocspace

OpenBSD: initiation sur 586

C'est assez fabuleux de voir son OS évoluer dans notre face, depuis l'affichage web en mode texte via Lynx et saluer l'arrivée des cadres dans Dillo...

C'est moins cool de pas comprendre pourquoi Chromium se lance pas...

J'ai espoir de pouvoir faire un dual boot avec openSuse puisque la version DVD indique 586... Alors que les live-cd indique 686... WTF ?

Pentium1=586 Pentium 2= 686 etc...
