+
+Refer to @uref{bbb_setup.html,bbb_setup.html} for how to set up the BBB for flashing it externally, if you want to do that.
+
+Internal flashing is possible. Boot with proprietary BIOS and GNU/Linux, and run the latest version of flashrom. This
+board has 2 flash chips, one is a backup.
+
+Flash the first chip:
+./flashrom -p internal:dualbiosindex=0 -w libreboot.rom
+
+Flash the 2nd chip:
+./flashrom -p internal:dualbiosindex=1 -w libreboot.rom
+
+That's all!
+
+Do refer to the @uref{../hcl/ga-g41m-es2l.html,compatibility page} for more information about this board.
