Regards,
Some time ago I posted the following question about firmware upgrade for a
Alphastation 400 4/233.
Hello, it's me again !
Another chapter in the neverending story:
When trying to do
set ewa0_inet_init bootp
set ewa0_protocols bootp
the system dies writing out the following messages:
Avanti Processor Machine Check Through Vector 00000670
Logout frame address 0x6000 code 0x20c
Avanti Machine Check Code --> 0x20c Non Existent Memory Error
and a whole bunch of register dumps.
I assume this has something to do with a misconfigured ISA bus, but the
'Owners Manual' has disappeared, so here I am.
Any clues ???
I've later discovered that the problems was caused by setting the language
variable to something other than English(American) (specifically; norwegian).
If I reset the language back to English(American) everything is OK.
Is this a known bug ??? (This also happens for SRM version 5.0 for
Alphastation 400 4/233 and 6.2 for DEC 3000/400 but for DEC 3000s there are
other errormessages)
