Title: How to flash AMD RX-cards from a USB-stick?
Post by: spinx on January 22, 2018, 12:12:54 PM
Hi, i have a bunch of SMOS-riggs all equipped with matching RX570 cards. Now i have taken the time to optimize the bios for my cards, and like to flash all of them. But i cant find a DOS-based ATI-Winflash version that support RX-cards? How do you normally solve this? All i want i a bootable usb-stick with my ROM that i can insert in all my rigs and convenient flash all cards.

There is a Linux version of Atiflash.

Could i put this on a linux-live dist and run it from a usb without any drivers etc? Is it terminal based?

ethOS includes atiflash in their distro, so I imagine it is terminal based. Never tried using it though.

I found this great article, going to try this with SMOS since its ubuntu based.
