I searched for a few days for new firmware for a 715/50, but didn't find
anything. Only for the faster 715's, but their hardware is slightly
different. So I wouldn't try that update on a 715/50.

*If* this really is a firmware bug (that's still merely speculation), a
workaround for Palo could be made (after all, HP-UX will boot). It
might even be a Palo bug?
