                           INSTALLATION NOTES
================================================================================

WARNING:  It is very important to follow these instructions as they are written.
Failure to update using the proper procedure may cause damage to your system.

Updating from BIOS revisions R0018 or later:

User can update BIOS flash image via either of the following methods...
UEFI iFlash32 2.6 Build 10
   1.  Boot the system to EFI Shell
   2.  Copy IFlash32.efi and R0063.CAP file to a HD or USB Flash Drive
       ( Do not use the Rec.CAP file as it will clear NVRAM and should
         only be used for Recovery - See Recovery Instructions located in the seperate recovery package )
   3.  Map the respective storage device in system with the command
	   Shell> map -r
   4.  Change the Shell to mapped device file system
	   Example: Shell> fs0: (or fs1:)
   5.  Run the IFlash32 utility on the prompt
	   fs0:\> IFlash32 [File Name] /u /ni
   6.  Reboot system after the update is completed.

================================================================================
                        BIOS RECOVERY INSTRUCTIONS
================================================================================

The recovery instructions and recovery files are now located in a separate package available for download.

================================================================================
                            KNOWN ISSUES/WORKAROUNDS
================================================================================

- The UEFI iFlash32 BIOS Update Utility should only be used after the R0018 or
  later BIOS version is properly installed on your system.  Refer to the section
  regarding INSTALLATION NOTES above.

- If performing BIOS recovery process and the system hangs at POST Code 0x34 before
  the BIOS POST screen appears, it may a require a warm reset via the front panel
  or AC power cycle for recovery to properly detect the recovery media and load
  FVMAIN.FV from the recovery device.

- For S5500BC, S5520HC, S5500HCV, S5520SC, S5520UR, S5500WB & S5500WB12V Platforms, 
  please ensure that the BMC FW installed is v0.31 or later before updating to the R0029 or later
  BIOS release.  Using BIOS R0029 with any BMC FW prior to v0.31 could cause the
  system to automatically shutdown upon A/C power cycles.

- BIOS R0037 requires a firm key press during POST to get a key accepted. 

- BIOS R0048 and later: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Processor 5600 series A0 stepping no longer supported.

- BIOS R54 has implemented the Recovery process enhancement solution to fix the recovery 
  dependency of the BIOS variables. When customer enables both recovery Jumper and Clear 
  CMOS jumper, BIOS variables in VPD area will be cleared and CMOS values will be set to
  default.
