June 2004 G5 Firmware Update

[daveL]

I'm surprised I'm the first (I think) to post this, but there is a firmware update for the newer G5 PMs. I've installed it on my 2x2.5 GHz PM with no ill effects. The update doesn't give much detail as to what's changed.

My original rev was 5.1.8f3. Now it's 5.1.8f7.

Thanks for the heads up. I just went through a smooth update as well.

Got a link?

Can't see it on the downloads at Apple.

Never mind, found it

Just done the firmware update with know problems - the strangest thing was that the dvd tray popped out after the update and the system rebooted twice as I listerned to the famous chimes.

Not noticed anything strange yet
