I have an alternative:

6BZ_A4.BIN = 05/03/1999-i440ZX-ITE-2A69KSMHC-00

because you want one with support for the same I/O chip, else you'll have to add a multi-I/O card. Rainbow, please correct me if I'm wrong...

That might work.
I found that the i440BX-ITE-2A69KSMMC was on the ic.doma.kiev.ua before it disappeared (unfortunately, this file is not in the archive). I also found some forum where someone wanted 60GB support for this board. I sent a reply that he should come here and that I can patch his BIOS.

Which also means you are getting a dump from his board that you can use here :) good thinking...

Rainbow, anything you can understand from this thread?
http://www.altech.ru/techsupport/ts_con ... onfa_id=29

This might give some hints, too:

(Edwin, you must have overlooked this one, but the VIA/INTEL double-identity there has me totally puzzled)

Or... a rebadged TCOMMATE P2BXA board?

On the russian forum, someone searches for BIOS because it's corrupted (BootBlock shows)...

According to the ID sent by hektor, it's just another version of SuperPower P2BXA board - BIOSes for rev. A through D are available but the only BIOS for rev. E was on the ic.doma.kiev.ua which is now dead.

AJZ, I'm working from the ground up (case 0001), now around 7300 or something, that one will be done later...

And I don't think it is my comment either. There are more people working on that thing...

The bios string shown in that mobocopcase is for a 6XV-133:
