Update:

I have been able to upgrade that old FESX with a newer code (4001a),
using a tftpboot from bootrom!!

FEX Boot Code Version 02.0.00
Enter 'b' to stop at boot ...
FEX-Boot>ip add 193.43.xxx.yyy/26

      Compiled on Feb 19 2008 at 18:37:10 labeled as SXL04001a

==> After that, I have been able to upgrade bootrom to 07.2.00T3e5, and
main code to 07.2.02rT3e3.

Thanks for those who replied privately with older codes and hints, you
will make some nonprofit orgs happy :-)
