Firmware Update

Hello everyone! I am having a problem with our IBM pseries 640. It's
a machine type 7026 model B80. My problem is a few weeks ago, the I/O
board went bad so I ordered a used part from a vendor and installed
it. Unfortunately, the firmware on the new I/O board is factory
original and now I cannot get the box booted at all. I can get into
the service processor menu, and can even boot into the SMS menu, but
the only option to upgrade the firmware from those menus involves
using a diskette drive, which my 7026 does not have. I also tried to
boot from media, unsuccessfully, because I'm assuming I won't even be
able to do that until I get the firware issue corrected. Any ideas on
how to upgrade the firmware on a box that doesn't have a diskette
drive and is not bootable at the moment?
