Greetings,

I have a DS20E with a KZPCC controller, currently running Tru64 UNIX 5.1A PK3.
Firmware is the latest.

While attempting to upgrade to Tru64 UNIX 5.1B the following message was
displayed indicating the hardware (about 5 months old) is not supported in the
new release. Any ideas why? I have succesfully installed 5.1B on several
other machines that are 4 or 5 years old.
