Using the AFU for DOS 
In this chapter...
This chapter describes how to use the Adaptec Flash Utility (AFU), a text-based DOS utility 
that you can use to update, save, or verify the HostRAID controller’s firmware BIOS.
Caution: 
Although the AFU contains safeguards to prevent you from accidentally damaging 
your HostRAID controller’s flash contents, it is still important to use the AFU carefully and 
correctly to avoid rendering your HostRAID controller inoperable. Adaptec recommends that 
only advanced users familiar with working in DOS use the AFU. For more information, see
