I have a Gateway motherboard. The BIOS flashing process
consists of two steps: 1) Flash the BIOS; reboot; then 2)
run a utility called "MuLoader" which reads a binary
file (.gbd) that contains any stepping data not in
the original BIOS and supplies it for your processors.
Here's the problem: I want to use a Coppermine processor
but the Gateway supplied BIOS only supports Katmai (and
older). The MuLoader has the necessary stepping info
for the Coppermine, but I can't get it into the BIOS,
because MuLoader only loads the steppings for the processors
it sees. Can't boot with a Coppermine, so MuLoader won't
load Coppermine steppings.
Does anyone with experience with MuLoader know of a way
(hack?) to trick MuLoader into loading the steppings I need?
