1237.0. ""HSUTIL" support for EZ58s?" by CSC32::D_DONOVAN (SummaNulla(The High Point of Nothing)) Thu Apr 17 1997 19:47

	I noticed in the Release Notes for HSOF V3.1 & V5.1
in the section on "Ability to install New Microcode" that 
only four EZ devices are listed.  We currently are running 
with EZ58s and this device is not one of the four listed
(EZ51, EZ54, EZ64 and EZ69).  Is the lack of "HSUTIL" support 
for the EZ58 just an ommission in the Release Notes or is there
something "special" about this model that prevents a Microcode 
upgrade.

Thanks,

Dennis 

P.S.	Would someone please respond to "1234".

Well from the device side,,,

EZ51R, EZ54R and EZ58R all use the exact same .FUP file and all load the EXACT
same way.

It's is nice to see they added SSD support, HSOF 2.7 and 3.0 did NOT support SSD.

Also beware do NOT upgrade EZ58R drives from 089 or 098 up to 109! V109 was just
half of the problem with EZ58R's running older versions. The other half of the
problem was the RZ26L retention device use in the EZ58R. An up to revision EZ58R
needs both V109 AND a NEW retention device (was an FCO over a year ago).
