Wow, that's a quite detailed response, thank you.
I need to check out DMDE disk editor, because the last disk editor in DOS that I used was an old copy of PartitionMagic with Win9x-like interface.
Also, I remembered that old boards without UEFI rarely came with a flash utility inside BIOS, so you need to boot to DOS and use AMIFLASH or some other utility to update it.
