    Could very well be the netboot stuff. I typically flash BIOS/firmware
    via DOS network boot images, which provides at least two different ways
    of disk emulation: a: and c:, but some flash tools just freeze the
    system on load/image load in both ways. Most prominently is the Promise
    TX2/100 firmware update, but also a couple of motherboards BIOS'
    flashers behave that way (cannot remember which ones, though).
