Yep, it's a pretty embarassing bug, but it's not the first PPC board to need a flash update. ;)

Luckily only a few boards have yet been sent out.

1000 users haven't tested the Pegasos-2. They're about to do this now. Before this, the Peg-2 has been only in the hands of its engineers and core developers of MorphOS. The Peg-1 uses a different version of the firmware.

With X86 PC world, one could avoid certain brand and make if reliability is an issue.


Provided of course that this brand doesn't include CPUs or commercial operating systems. Not much choice there.
