How to use
----------
This information is a supplement of "Creating a CMOS Settings Image" of
"Chapter 4. Procedures" in "LCCM V2.0 Training and Procedure Guide"
(G10L-9830-0) when CMOS update on ThinkPad using LCCM is performed.


Creating a CMOS Settings Image (for ThinkPad user)

1. At a donor workstation:
       a. Start up the workstation and access the Easy-setup program.
          (you can access this program by pressing F1 during the power-on
          self-test (POST)).
       b. Change and save the desired setting as required.
       c. Exit from the Easy-setup program and restart the workstation.
          Ensure that the workstation starts up and functions properly.

2. Use the SRCMOS.EXE program to save the current settings of the donor
   workstation to a file named with the .CMS extension.
   At a Command Prompt, enter:
       > SRCMOS \path\file_name.CMS /create
                                   (/capture)

3. Rename the SRCMOS.EXE.(refer to the table below to rename the program
   name.)
       => 'SRCMOS' + 'xx' + '.EXE'
                       xx: system board identifier (two character)

4. Copy SRCMOSxx.EXE and .CMS file to the corresponding BIOS directory
   on your server which is named:
       C:\LCCM_install_dir\BIOS\Flash_BIOS_Name
          where the 'Flash_BIOS_Name' directory is the name of the BIOS
          level on your donor workstation (unless this was changed by
          the system administrator during the Read BIOS Flash diskette
          process).

   Note:
     When you are not able to get the BIOS update diskette:
     a. Check the "Current BIOS Level" of the Maintenance page of the
        Individual Client Details notebook.
     b. Create the directory under the \LCCM_install_dir\BIOS which
        has the same name to "Current BIOS Level".
        For example, if "Current BIOS Level" is IBUJ01WW, the required
        directory is:
             \LCCM_installed_dir\BIOS\IBUJ01WW
     c. Copy SRCMOSxx.EXE and .CMS file to above directory.

     You must uncheck the "Update BIOS" check box of the Maintenance
     page. (Check the "Update CMOS with file" check box only)
