[...] If anyone can help advise on how to make a bootable usbkey to execute this, I would really appreciate it.
I do have the same drive and I updated the firmware booting the image off grub. All just need is a working grub (2.0 here) installation and syslinux (for memdisk). (Though doing it with syslinux should work as well.) The grub.cfg should have a config section that looks like this: menuentry "Update Crucial M4" { set root='(hd0,1)' linux16 /memdisk floppy initrd16 /boot2880.img } If the files are in place (probably in /boot/) the image should boot and you can successfully update the drives firmware. Mounting the boot image, modifying it or installing freedos is not necessary. -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Chris get my mail address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* gcc -o sig sig.c && ./sig */b/42*2-3)*42);}
