Wow!  That really stinks.  I'm sorry to hear that.

Have you tried it with a USB keyfob?

Luckily, the BIOS recoverable on the AL.  I've never seen a BMC fail
from firmware updates.  The update must succeed in order for the new FW

You might need to be in the Utilities/OFU directory.  The last time I

Were you able to install libwwwzip and try again?

My only other suggestion would be to use DOS (sorry Andrew) on a usb fob
