I managed to dig out the output from a working and non-working BIOS/IPMI: BIOS A02 (working): ipmi0: at iomem 0xfa840-0xfa85e,0xfa860-0xfb357 o n isa0 ipmi0: SMBIOS Version: 2.03, revision: 2.03 ipmi0: KCS mode found at io 0xca8 alignment 0x4 on isa ipmi0: IPMI device rev. 0, firmware rev. 1.81, version 1.5 ipmi0: Number of channels 4 ipmi0: Attached watchdog BIOS A03 (not working): ipmi0: at iomem 0xfa830-0xfa84e,0xfa850-0xfb356 o n isa0 ipmi0: SMBIOS Version: 2.03, revision: 2.03 ipmi0: KCS mode found at io 0xca8 alignment 0x4 on isa ipmi0: couldn't configure smbios io res I don't know if the IPMI-stuff actually moved or not in the BIOS, but the memory ranges differ.
