I have tried running a test using dd if=/dev/zero .......
What does a message on the console
ll_rw_block: device 08:01: only 1024-char blocks implemented (3072)
mean?
This happens sometimes and the resulting files do not compare.

But.... the bios upgrade should be a standard part of bring up every

that they also have bios upgrades available for all their boards. It's
pretty easy to do and should be SOP for a production system.
