    Need this for my FW/UTM thanks to Sophos still running the SLES 12 SP1 LTSS kernel... Amazon and Ebay prices make me wish I just had a crack habit instead.

    CAUTIONARY TALE FOR ASRock AB350 Pro4 AND RX 480 OWNERS

    My ASRock AB350 Pro4 with a Sapphire RX 480 refused to post after updating to BIOS 4.20 (AGESA 1.0.7.2). Beep codes emitted from the board (5 beeps repeated twice), according to a dated FAQ on ASRock's website, pointed the finger at my GPU but the GPU was fine in another system. Solution if...
