bios upgrade for blacksand with N450 ?

bios upgrade for blacksand with N450 ?

[Frans Meulenbroeks]

Hi,

I got one of the blacksand boards with N450 that were given away at
the ELC, and I am wondering if there happens to be a bios upgrade for
it (or at least make the bios a little bit less chatty and faster
starting).
Anyone any idea?

Thanks! Frans

I waswwondering if a newer bios has become available I haven't heard back
from you after the above mail and I haven't found a newer bios myself (but
maybe I looked at the wrong places). The one I got with the board is way too
verbose making the boot take way too long, causing the board to be used only
rarely.

Hi Frans,

I'm sorry for not getting back to you. I did ask, and unfortunately
there is currently not a less noisy BIOS available for the Blacksand.
I will forward your email and feedback to my internal contacts for this
board and will be sure to let you know if I hear back from them.

Thanks,

Darren
