Hi Thomas,
Ahhh, so what you're saying is FreeIPMI gets the error and doesn't
continue to output additional FRU information?
There is a expected error code for when information from the
motherboard isn't available (I can't remember that expected code at the
moment), so I guess your motherboard isn't reporting that error code.
Let me work up a workaround for you to try and I'll e-mail you with a
branch path.
