You have to be in BIOS1 to copy BIOS1 to BIOS2.
You have to be in BIOS2 to copy BIOS2 to BIOS1.
If you're unable to flash from within BIOS then you have the option of flashing from a USB image, described in the manual.
Both of the BIOS images are "persistent" NVRAM.
They're each flashed onto an NVRAM chip. They each remain unchanged until/unless their NVRAM is reflashed (or somehow corrupted).
Many BIOS settings are not permanently flashed into firmware but are stored in "semi-persistent" CMOS/RTC "NVRAM".
Clear CMOS erases this data (resets it back to factory defaults).
Disconnecting all power inputs and CR2032 battery from the motherboard erases this data (after the memory remains unpowered for a few minutes).
This (one) CMOS storage area is always used by the active firmware, switching between two BIOS images can corrupt any information it contains (especially if they're different BIOS versions). It's all non-critical data and the computer can (should) always run on factory default settings when no data are present, but you can't normally transfer your settings from one BIOS to another without manually re-entering them.
