The same happens on my brand new DL380 G7

There´s a smiliar case in the debian bugtracker:

New updates were out, more specifically:
kernel-2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.x86_64.rpm
kernel-firmware-2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.noarch.rpm
kernel-headers-2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.x86_64.rpm

So I updated and the Firmware Bug still exists.

Just installed 6.2 on a

Hewlett-Packard HP Compaq 4000 Pro SFF PC/1493, BIOS 786H7 v02.00 01/31/2011

running the 220.4.2 Linux localhost 2.6.32-220.4.2.el6.x86_64 0000001 SMP Tue Feb 14 04:00:16 GMT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

No Firmware bug, so is this a problem to be addressed by HP or what?

I can confirm this is presently an issue, and also effects HP DL320 G6 using the 2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.x86_64 kernel.

The initial install of CentOS 6 worked fine, however after a yum update the machine failed to reboot. Selecting the previous kernel version from the grub menu allow the machine to boot again (2.6.32-71.el6.x86_64).

sorry, bit too rushed to report it, on Gen8 servers, it can be fixed by instructions provided here.

I'm getting this error but only on the CentOS 6.4 VM setup in VMware to run nested virtualization. Everything seems to work otherwise.
