Performed a firmware upgrade on the HP Proliant DL 585 G7 server. Both BIOS and storage controller. That seems to have solved the problem. Installing the 12.04 beta2 server without problems.
I have attached the output from dmesg on the server after the firmware upgrade. I am not entirely clear on what firmware loading by the kernel means in this context. Is the kernel loading firmware into the network and storage cards during boot? How does this relate to the firmware flashing we have just made? I have two of these servers, but we only updated the firmware on one. I can keep the servers at different firmware levels until the final 12.04 release is out. I will be happy to run any tests, on either server, that might help you nailing the proper solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/969304 Title: Regression: Missing Firmware Files phanfw.bin and nx3fwct.bin (precise 12.04 beta) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/969304/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
