sure it is. just copy/burn/flash it in..the rest of the eeprom will remain unused.

just add 128kb zeros at the end of the 384kb file to make it 512kb.

In the BEGIN!!!
how can i do that sir.
1. Any hex-editor can help to do it.
2. Find any file with size 128kB (to example some 1Mbit-BIOS) and use "copy file1+file2". (file2 - is your 384kB bios image)
