You're right. "Status: Not Staged". Is this what Gary Buhrmaster spoke
of when he said I needed a "hit"? I also notice on one of the pages I
see "Card OOB Lock: Success" so I presume that's not the problem. I
also see on one thread reference to a "DAC Init" or possibly a "Grand
Slam Init". Are those various levels of a "hit"?
I'm also running the 10111025 firmware that came with it. When I first
powered up it gave a message about loading firmware, so I presumed it
was getting the newest. I downloaded 20120128 firmware when I began my
installation. I suppose I can install that and power off the card to
force a reboot, then we'll see.
