My understanding is that CHRP-BOOT support was added in OF 3.0, and so=20
there is a 1:1 overlap; if you can read CHRP-BOOT, you don't need to=20
change settings.

Note that some of the earlier 3.0 systems didn't die if you changed=20
settings. But it is true that some do die, and that means a MB=20
replacement. :-(

Take care,
