so one possibility is that os140py isn't successfully
enabling
smbios, or not recognizing the results correctly.
I'm not sure. It should not work in subsequent boots also then. No?
Looks like that needs something that is provided by the OS/initrd (/ofw?) but is generated
after the first successful run.
what firmware is installed on our XO-1?
as said (:-) q2e42d
and -- question for bernie -- does os140py include a new
firmware?
Did not offer to upgrade the FW at any point (initial or later boots) though it was
plugged for that exact reason.
