SLIC amibios core 6 A901

Hi Andy.
I have done another slic this time checking only the following options:
1- Allow alternate method
2- Allow bootblock

This is the log:

What, IF I GET BRAVE, shoul I try:
1- This one with the above LOG, using 1-alternate method AND 2- Allow bootblock, OR
2- The one I posted before, checking 1- alternate method, 2-manual location, 3-allow nvram AND 4-allow bootblock

Wich one would be YOUR best bet, considering both LOGs are posted here on the forum?
Thanks again.

The log still shows

SLIC inserted at 10

Which is not in the bootblock. I think for safety's sake the 'allow bootblock' does just that, allows it to be there but doesn't put it there if it feels there are other, safer, locations. I need to have a look at the BIOS agin tonight and pick a location.

Hi Andy,

I just modded the v1.5 BIOS for the board above with amitool 1.42. A page earlier you wrote that you have modified the tool to work with this MSI BIOS.

Just to be sure i've pasted my log output below. Do you think everything has worked out right?

Hi Andy,

I just modded the v1.5 BIOS for the board above with amitool 1.42. A page earlier you wrote that you have modified the tool to work with this MSI BIOS.

Just to be sure i've pasted my log output below. Do you think everything has worked out right?
