where did you get that from? you also have a screenshot of a list of boards with the 3.62 firmware, but where is that FROM?

OHHH. you have a DRH not an SRH. i misread that. it's very similar, but not the same board. hmm.
X9SRH isn't there at all.

There is 3.64 ipmi but for some other x9SR- something
I also have X9SRi-F but it doesn't have Sas controller and it indeed has 3.64 ipmi

yes, i know that. it just didnt register, so they looked like the same board.
I'm going to try reflashing everything. i did flash it with the base lsi firmware, not the supermicro, so maybe there is something required b/w the 2 for what I want to work.

I had the right version numbers, but I got there the wrong way. I needed to do it the supermicro way, with freeDOS, rather than from TrueNAS.

Is there lsi card in boot option?
there is no oprom option that I can find for the LSI card itself, but it now boots the LSI bios, and presents drives to the board bios for booting from, as i expected it to.
it's just the bios, no uefi anywhere afaik. as I dont understand UEFI, I would probably struggle to get that to work anyway.
