Hi there,
the company i work for recently bought a used ASG220 (HW rev. 1). I tried to install the latest firmare with the appropriate image by booting from an external DVD-burner which didn't work (although CD-ROM is configured as first boot-device in the BIOS). Unfortunately we didn't get the VGA adapter together with the ASG220 so we can only debug on terminal via serial connection. But when using the serial connection you can only see the POST-Screen and the login-prompt but nothing in between which might be helpful in debugging the i-dont-boot-from-cd-rom-situation.
Anyway, the biggest trouble is that a nice lady from Astaro sales-department told me that we cannot use the essential firewall license on the ASG220 unless we format the hard-drive (she said that there is some data on the hard-drive telling "i am an ASG220 and i only eat commercial licenses!"). She wasn't 100% sure so i desperately need an advise from someone regarding whether this will work or not BEFORE i fdisk/mke2fs the box.
Has anyone experience and/or advise which will make us using that ASG220 together with the essential firewall license? Tanks in advance for any helpful replies!
Cheers
