it doesn't have a WP range by default so afaik flipping the dip switch as it is out of the box won't do anything..
atomicdog:
Oh, so (after reading the datasheet) the FLASH chip hardware WP isn't enabled by default. It would need to be configured by the BMC or external programmer.
atomicdog:
A PreRelease of Fedora 42 is available here:
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/Fedora-KDE-Desktop-Live/42/20250302.n.0/images/Fedora-KDE-Desktop-Live-42-20250302.n.0.ppc64le.iso
Hasturtium:
Is it likely that I can jump from 40 to 42 without incident? I gave 41 a pass.
ClassicHasClass:
Probably, but it's always cleaner if you minimize the update delta. 41 has been working OK for me so far. That said, you could upgrade to 41 after 42 comes out, and then immediately upgrade to 42.
