The most recent BIOS offered via the page you linked was F.66. I updated
my BIOS to that version:
$ sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date
F.66
07/01/2014
After updating, I connected and disconnected the Osprey 2 Mini four
times, with no crashes. Then I rebooted, connected it and got a reset
loop, and disconnected it and got a system hang (Caps Lock was not
flashing but the system did not respond to any input, not even Alt-
SysRq-B, and I had to hold down the power button to shut it off).
As such, I believe the BIOS update did nothing to prevent the bug
occurring, and that the bug is still present.
