BIOS version 1.1.4 is very old release and it is not recommended to update BIOS from a very old version to latest. You can try incremental update. While updating BIOS it is also recommended to update iDRAC also along with BIOS. 2.3.2 is the oldest version available in support site so that is the first option available to try incremental firmware update. Ideally we should not be seeing any issues while updating BIOS as long as there is no other issues on the server.  Below link have similar post about BIOS FW update sequence. [URL]#M30182 
I have version 1.1.4 on my T130 from 2016. I see the latest version is 2.10.1. Can I update straight to this newest version from 1.1.4? Do I need to update to an earlier version first? No information on this. Also I have read several posts about the BIOS update failing and not allowing booting on the T130. No real solutions offered on the posts beyond the desperate "power off, drain flea power and try again". I would like to have the latest version to avoid issues with controllers and firmware in the rest of the server, but don't want to lose the server. Seems a shame that this happens with Dell equipment. I know these are entry level servers but you would still expect something more robust for the BIOS update.
