Being pedantic but that's not what you said. No mention of "only" in your original append.


My post stated micro-code only " So,
by coping the B side to the A side (which is what you are in essence
doing
when your permanently apply your PTFs),

It was this part I took issue with--it implies A and B sides exist for all PTFs and is misleading to those who do not know otherwise.

I know that I can reboot the
machine
and be running the same version of microcode that I was running
before the
PTF installation."

You started by loading and applying Cume and groups, said you applied quarterly, then said if a problem occurred with this set of PTFs you could boot from the A side to recover. It's only at the very end you mention micro-code but everything prior to this point implies all PTF activity will be undone by running from the A-side.
