USB boot on PE2950 vs PE2900

The BIOS of these two servers should be nearly identical.  What is
providing the impression that the 2900 does not allow booting from USB
devices?  Are they at the same BIOS revision level?

Hello,

I am new to the group and would love some help with this confusion.

I see the BIOS on the 2950 allows for bootable USB devices, while on the
2900 there is not.

Am I just missing something?

Thanks in advance.
