Why do you think you need to update the PROM?  Other than some rare
problems with device support the version that you have now will likely be
fine.  What version do you have?

The OBP is stored on an EPROM on the board.  This can be upgraded by
replacing or reprogramming the chip.  The IPC, being nearly a decade old,
predates the commonplace use of flash for firmware.
