Tried to recover a H11ssl BMC yesterday by trying to flash a stock image from SM.
I think that lost the BMC-NIC MAC and the thing didn't have networking anymore.
If you were to do that, i think that at least that would make the wait for BMC happy if that is the issue.
Though i also think that it should time out after a while and continue anyway, so it is weird that that isn't happeneing as well.
Luckily, i had a backup and could flash that back in my case.
Sadly, the H11 BMC FW is different enough to the X10 and X11 series for me to not be able to reset that to factory settings manually.
H12 FW is different yet again, so, good luck with i guess?
In my opinion, an external SPI eeprom flasher is your only option at this point.
Get one with with SOP8 and SOP16 clips and the 1.8V Level shifter, and take a Multimeter to the EEPROMS and measure their voltage to make sure you arre using the right combo.
You could either flash the BMC FW to stock and hope that makes the wait feature happy.
Or you modify a bios to not wait by default, and then flash that.
Other ideas?
