			SYSTEM HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS/REVISIONS
=============================================================================
Server Board S5000PAL/S5000XAL with the following PBA revisions (or higher):

  - A BMC must previously have been installed.  If this is not the case, first
    follow the directions in the IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES to get an initial
   image into the flash before updating to this BMC version.

  - If the Failsafe BMC is already updated, then to update this BMC, BMC should be 
    in Force Update Mode


=============================================================================
		       SYSTEM SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS/REVISIONS
=============================================================================
- FRU/SDR package:
      FAL_48

- S5000PAL/S5000XAL BIOS revision:
      R0099 BIOS

- SEEPROM Image:
      v04.00  (SDRAM disabled - Use of any other SEEPROM image is not supported at this time)

- MS-DOS v6.22 (or later)


=============================================================================
                         IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES
=============================================================================
- Executing the batch files can be done from any media (Hard disk, USB disk-on-
  key, shared network drive or floppy).

- When updating from BMC version 48 or previous to BMC version 49 or later 
  using fwpiaupd.exe utility please use following command:
  fwpiaupd -u -b -o -pia -nopc -ni -p filename.hex.

- Since the release of the BMC50A Package, boot block updates via BMC68.bat file
  has been removed. The Boot block firmware remains the same in all subsequent
  releases even though the version number appeared to change in some release notes.

- From release BMC61, boot block needs to be updated to make Firmware Update
  faster. So, boot block updates via "-b" is added in BMC68.bat file.

-From release BMC68, boot block needs to be updated to fix BMC checksum issue. So, boot block updates via "-b" is added in BMC68.bat file.
  
=============================================================================
                         INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
=============================================================================

1) Update the BMC firmware using BMC68.bat.

2) Update the SDR & FRUs with the FRU/SDR package.

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

1) SIO3 Contention is resolved in this Release
   --------------------------------------------
   This release is for Beta base board (or equivalent) only.  Equivalent HW must contain SIO and GPIO rework.  
	Otherwise system will not function correctly.  True Beta HW must have EEPROM V02.09 
	Installed to match A1/C0 ESB2/82563GB on board.


2) Serial / Modem is defeatured.

3) From BMC48 we have removed the EEPROM update files from the package.

4) For testing CLTT or OLTT please use systems with active backplanes(HSBP).
