If you reload the bios with your a piece of code that does not look at 
the floppy to boot, or anything else for that matter, tell me how you 
plan to flash the bios?

If the bios chip is removable, you can pull it and reprogram it with a 
stand alone bios flasher, but how many people have one?  (I do)

Have you ever burned a rom or eprom?  Have you written assembler?  Then 
you should know that you can write more then just vendor bios code to 
the chip.

If the chip is not removable, there is the slight possibility you can 
wire directly to the mb and flash it, but again, you need a device to do 
that.

How do you get the computer to flash itself when you never get out of 
the bios and the bios does not see any boot devices?
