Most of the BIOSes out there can be split up into 256k chunks.

I can not say for sure that you can do this with the ones that you are looking at (I am an Evox man myself), but you could at least try.

The app you want is called XBOXBiosSlicer.zip. You can find it here:

The uneducated teaching the uneducated...

You cannot use the Complex and/or Linux BIOS' since they're both greater than 256k.

There may be another method to set your EEPROM, but I am unaware of it.

So there are no 256k BIOS's available that bypass the onboard EEPROM?
