5312 controller doesn't have 'online' firmware updates

We update the BIOS, iLO and RAID firmware automatically during a W2000/2003 build. After the setup scripts automatically run setting up all our configuration settings, installing drivers, etc. HP have said there are no 'online' firmware updates for the 5312 due to a design problem; it's one of the few controllers that can't be updated 'online', eg. under Win32 environments, along with the RILOE card (not iLO or RILOE II).

Has anyone else had a problem with this and found a way to do it automatically rather than manually with a diskette ?
