Hello, new mac pro 1,1 owner here. I have two drives, one with Lion, and another I bought off ebay that has El Capitan installed. When trying to do the upgrade process above I still get 5530 error. When I switch to capitan it runs perfectly... Except, after rebooting it still shows 1,1. I run the tool it does everything then says Finished, tells me to reboot, but to hold the power button until the flashes or the tone. I do that.. I do see a white/greyish screen for a while, maybe 15-20 seconds, then the apple logo comes up and it boots normally. When I go check to see if it worked I still see 1,1. Oh on the two drives, I didn't run them at the same time, I ran separately.
Any ideas?

I think my issue is I am not mounting the correct firmware. Does anyone have a link to the correct firmware? I have a .dmg called MacProFirmwareUpdate1.2.dmg, but when I try to mount that it says "This computer doesn't need this update".
