Some servers use undisclosed methods to control the fans.

But to do the flashing you could;

To do this is relatively easy using two floppies.
First create a bootdisk that loads DOS, configures a RAM drive and 
copies the essential DOS files to RAM, sets %COMSPEC%, %PATH% et al. You 
could probably fit a copy of some of the files on there.
Second swap floppies with the remaining files and start the flash procedure.
Although it might not be necessary, i'd probably copy the remaining 
files to RAM before starting the flash procedure just to be sure that it 
isn't corrupted in the obvious ways.
