speaking of Google hits, did you try "BIOS manual" - they do 
exist, but, one must never miss an opportunity to pile on Karl, 
must one?

speaking of this subject, I do remember reading about a new 
feature in some motherboard a couple of months ago, an embedded 
Linux on a chip that you could boot into with a couple of 
keystrokes - one of the things it would let you do once booted, 
was flash your BIOS if you were connected to the internet
