Bios Revision is currently 2.1, yours is at 1.0c, but this won't change 
IPMI behavior

this was in dmesg:
ipmi0: IPMI device rev. 1, firmware rev. 1.54, version 2.0

looks like protocol 2.0, Firmware Rev 1.54

First try powercycle and remote access. Heartbeat LED should be blinking 
every second. If not, perhaps DOS still works, but it may also be dead.
