I'm still working on this issue, and I have DEC looking into it as well. I
have two other Alpha Servers, both 4100s, and I was wondering if anyone has
experienced any problems upgrading from firmware version 5.0 to 5.3 on a
4100. The 2100 which I am having the problem with now is for the most part
just a test machine right now, but my 4100s are both production machines.
This version of the firmware I got off of the internet as per DEC's
instructions.
Thanks for any help.
