[Soekris] Can I update the BIOS of a net4801 without using the serial port ?

[Matt Thyer]

My serial ports got fried years ago but I still use my net4801 as a router
every day.
Now I'm using NanoBSD and have out grown my 256MB card and have purchased a
SanDisk Ultra II 2GB card.
It's not working and I gather this is because I need to update the comBIOS
to version 1.33.
So is this possible from FreeBSD (or Linux or anything) without using the
serial ports on the net4801 ?
If not, how easy would it be to replace the fried serial port chip (I've got
access to a very good soldering station) ?
