I haven't tried that yet, but I just tried after having the raid array
rebuilt running the proprietary BIOS.

The serial log is attached. It took longer now to crash, just as I observed
the first time I succesfully booted LinuxBIOS. I got a login prompt and
things worked fine for a few minutes. After that, the same thing: serial log
shows that the fallback image is being restarted, and the machine just hangs.

In other words, heavy disk activity (sw-raid5 rebuilding) seems to trigger the
crashes more quickly than otherwise.

Thanks,
Ward.
