Reboot. When you get to the blue Itanium splash screen, choose setup instead
of boot. Scroll right until you get to the BIOS tab, the first field will
give a long string that contains the BIOS version number in the middle.
Usually it is ".00XX." where XX is the BIOS version number, but there are a
few exceptions, e.g. there is a BIOS 89B which displays as ".089B.".
