Henrik,

I emailed Soren directly about this 2 days ago. I haven't received a
reply, but I assume they are aware of the issue. With any luck a BIOS
update is in the works.

Me neither

I decided to put my 5501 into production at home and hooked
the console up to another server, so I can send the +++reset
to make it reset and find the disk when I need to reboot
(also connected it to an APC powerbar so I can powercycle as last
resort)

I would REEEEEALLLLLLLY like a short message from Soekris.com
saying "We know this, and we are working on it"
- but I dont remember seeing this anywhere?

Best regards

Henrik
