    it can be, amitool seems to work. However no idea if properly since i dont have board :) and about its size, i seriously have no idea why they need that much because quick look at this bios shows ~6.3MB of free space, so this means they could easy fit it in to 2MB.

    Thanks, I think I'll wait until someone with the board confirms that SLIC works.

    You can find it here : megaupload.com/?d=VC1MJR7L
    if the link is broken here (mine) : f*p://82.239.144.183/program/ASUS/ASUS%20-OEM-SLIC/Asus-Bios-Slp-Slic/Slic-2.1/
    choose the line N° 2, not verified by me, you have the original Bios in it.
    Tell forum if it is OK.

    Maybe they're planning to bring out an update to efi for you board? I think efi takes up more space than a bios.

    I second this. Then we will have more work to do.
