If it says 2.32 you are on the Cromwell Linux bank (Bank 0) You have to use a linux flash app (Eurasia) to flash from that bank. If not switch to bank 1 and use flashbios

It sounds like you flashed a 256k bios instead of resizing M8.16 to 512k.
You will have to flash the box using bank 0 now.
Obtain Eurasia and burn the ISO to disc.
make up a bios disc with a 512k (M8+.16 etc) bios named bios.bin and a dummy file named aabbcc.dat (around 100mb) burn the bios disc as a data disc.
You also need a regular MS controller (The big ugly type) and standard av lead to the TV
Boot the box on Bank 0 and insert the Eurasia flash disc. when it prompts for the bios disc, flick the bank switch to bank 1 before inserting the bios disc (use a non metalic object such as a toothpick)
The flash goes over bank 1.
network flash does not work on bank 0

If you mis-flashed both banks then you will have to hot swap with a working chip to flash it now.

I have had good luck with the oz flash disk. You can get this from the usual places and Yes, as chancer said make sure you have the correct bios size.
