Problems Fixed -


        HP ProLiant ML350 G4P system ROM D19 (02/15/2006)
        =================================================

		1) Resolved an issue that may result in a server hang during POST when 
		   certain storage controllers are installed and more than 7 logical 
		   drive volumes are configured.  This issue may occur on certain 
		   controllers, whether embedded or expansion card based, if 8 or 
		   more blank drives are attached to the controller.  This issue will 
		   occur with, but is not limited to, the HP 8 Port SAS/SATA controller, 
		   HP Single-Channel U320 SCSI HBA G2 Controller, and HP 64-Bit/133 
		   MHz PCI-X Dual-Channel U320 Controller.

		2) Resolved an issue where the System ROM could hang at the
		   end of POST when attempting to boot from a USB CDROM. 
		   
		3) Updated LSI U320 SCSI Option ROM to version 5.05.21. This Option
		   ROM resolves issues seen with One Button Disaster Recovery (OBDR)
		   Tape drive support when standup LSI U320 SCSI controllers are 
		   installed in the system. This issue would cause hard disk attached
	      	   to the SCSI controller to not be seen by the OBDR Tape Software.
		   		
		4) Added support for iSCSI adapters to be configured as the 
		   boot controller in the ROM-Based Setup Utility (RBSU).  
	   	   Certain iSCSI adapters previously would not show up in 
		   the boot controller menu in RBSU.
