All of the parts required to convert AlphaBIOS to SRM on the LX are
available at http://www.freebsd.org/~msmith/alpha/pc164lx

Put all the files on a floppy, boot AlphaBIOS, select Upgrade, it boots 
AlphaBIOS again, select Upgrade, then pick SRM from the combo box and 
let it do its stuff.

You may want to then upgrade to a later SRM.
