New ContributorHi, Rok
Attached.
Frequent ContributorYou can get the latest Acceleration Stack, firmware, etc. for PAC A10 from here:
New ContributorThank you for your answer. I have the whole stack including the required firmware, but the tool to actually write the firmware (BittWare Toolkit Lite, including bwconfig, bwmonitor, bwdfu-programmer commands) is not included. In the past it had to be obtained from BittWare, but they no longer provide it after July 31 2020. The point is that the card first needs to be updated in a two step procedure from 1.1 (FIM version 9926ab6d-6c92-5a68-aabc-a7d84c545738, BMC firmware 26822) to 1.2 using the BittWare tools, then one can use the newer tool to upgrade it from 1.2 to 1.2.1 (i.e., to firmware version 26895, bootloader 26895).
Kind regards,
Rok
Frequent ContributorOh, I see. Intel's documentation do not seem to indicate where the users of the PAC A10 board are supposed to get the Bittware Toolkit from and if Bittware does not distribute the tool to PAC A10 users, then the situation becomes hard to resolve. Have you tried contacting the vendor/reseller you purchased your board from?
New ContributorThis is a repurposed board that I wanted to try out with oneAPI at some point. There is no support offering from the vendor, and I have now found an Intel document according to which Intel has just recently discontinued support of the card as well, as of Sep 30 2020 (Invel customer advisory ADV2022):

Indeed, quite a conundrum.
Kind regards,
