I've got a v440 and I've purchased two single port FC HBAs to connect
to our incoming EMC. SG-XPCI1FC-QF2 Sun Qlogic 2310F cards.
I've been able to successfully flash one of them
to 1.14.11 rev of firmware using 114873-03 downloaded from SUN. The problem is
that when I went to update the second card it failed:
#./flash-upgrade
Using file: ./fcode_1.14.11/isp2300-1.14.11.prom

Now the card is toast. It is not detected via luxadm and from the OBP prompt.
output of 'luxadm fcode_download -p' prior to upgrading.

Has anyone had problems updating the flash on these cards? I have a replacement
for the card on the way but now i'm stuck with two cards with different
revisions of firmware. The plan was to connect them to a EMC CX500 via
McData 4500's.
Should i worry about the difference in FW revisions? It is somewhat alarming
that I can't seem to upgrade the flash on these without blowing the card up.
