Re: I screwed up with firmware patch
Firmware installation is one of those things where it is really, really important that you read and follow the installation instructions --- and not just treat them as suggestions.
I've done this many, many of these and I've only had one to fail -- on a DEC Alpha workstation --. It was a board replacement and, thankfully, under maintenance.

Solutionwhat you tried is OS installable firmware
patch. Which means, you install the firmware
path from OS. When system reboots it boots
with "srvrflash" which actually flashes the
firmware. If it is not happening, I see only
one work around. Interrupt the auto boot.
From BDC give bo pri and interact with ISL
"y". From ISL you boot your old kernel
instead of flash utility.
ISL>hpux (;0)/stand/vmunix
Before doing that you can also modify
autofile. use "lsautofl" to list the content.
After booting use mkboot -a to set auto file
string. Now check your firmware is correct
and indented for this system ...etc. also I suggest to redownload and follow the correct
procedure.( check the chsum - output and
compare with document).
