Abstract
An information handling system includes a flash memory having a basic input/output system (BIOS) firmware image having a modular file structure and a segment offset table that identifies offsets of a first set of modules including the firmware image. The system collects a second set of modules from a BIOS firmware update payload and maps the second set of modules to the first set of modules in the flash memory. The system also updates the BIOS firmware image with the second set of modules based on the offsets in the segment offset table.
