The model server that you have matters a lot when it comes to smartstart
versions.

If you have a newer system, specifically ones that have redundant
firmware ROMS, then you need the latest, I believe that 6.4 is what's
shipping, could be 6.5 by now.  

If you have an older system, without redundant ROMS, then you need
SmartStart 5.5 or older.  The older systems won't even boot the new SS
disks.


I can make an ISO of more current SS for you as well.  I believe that if
you call HP directly you will be able to get the current SS for a very
minor fee.  You can even subscribe for a fairly small fee to get new
ones as they come out.



The more current SS,6.x are linux based, no more windows 3.x/95 based
crap.

Don't worry about people stealing your ideas. If your ideas are any
good, you'll have to ram them down people's throats.
