This might be of some use - I've updated a ST31000340NS (ES.2 1TB version) under Linux to MA0D using hdparm v9.27's --fwdownload switch on Debian 5. You have to strip the first 256 bytes of Dell header from the start of the Dell update binary using dd bs=256 skip=1 ... The resulting file looked like this: # md5sum /root/*.lod a97ad3fa77db8b20b7e14a02a59277e7 /root/MA0D.lod # ls -al /root/*.lod -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1690624 2010-03-31 15:33 /root/MA0D.lod Tim. _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list [email protected] https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge Please read the FAQ at http://lists.us.dell.com/faq
