Hi Kent,

I started eating low-carb 8 days ago, and I could not believe how bad I felt. I didn’t know about the “induction flu” for the first several days, but when mine continued over the first 4 days everyone seems to talk about I was worried that maybe my problem was something else (although I had my blood work done 2 wks. before and everything was okay). I am going into the second week and I still feel exhausted and weak. I found a video you made about it where your “flu” lasted 31/2 weeks and I cannot tell you how much better that has made me feel. Maybe I will just be following along your progress. Thanks for all you do and for the support you provide. I have hope now that I can feel good in the future!

Kent,

I’ve been following your you tube broadcasts and I have a question regarding atkins. I’ve lost weight over the 4 months i’ve been doing it. I have managed to incorporate a low carb lifestyle into my every day life. However…. I’ve noticed that I keep having breakouts ie acne spots… is this because i’m not drinking enough water? Is it because i’m eating too much protein? or for some other reason?

would be very grateful of a reply

New FW for RAID boards have been out since Mar 20th. Battery issues are addressed in it.

However, I’m not sure if it fixes the problem described here, as the exact Model/Type of the 3850 M2 was not specified, neither was the description of the RAID card mentioned.

Anyway, http://www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral should get you going down the right road.

hi,

I’ve go to know your website through google. I’m stuck with technical issue, thought you would be able to help me.

I have a WinNT 4.0, need to make a P2V of it. The C (system) partition is on FAT and D E and F are in NTFS. I tried using VMConverter. It successfully gets it converted. However when I try to execute it through VMServer, I’m getting error “Boot:Could Not Find NTLDR Please insert another disk”. Can you please help me giving your expertise.

Regards,

Srini K

At this point there is no fix to the above issues. I am still have the issues despite fully patching the CIMServer, ServeRAID patches, BMC patches, and BIOS patches. I am rather disgusted with the lack of IBM support to the aesthetic issue. From my discussions with VMware back level support, the solution will come from IBM when it comes, and it simply has not been made a priority yet (IMO).

I to have the exact same issue (and a few more using the 3850′s).

Were any of you guys able to get any support out of IBM/VMWARE, as I certainly have not.
