Boot error on AS 500 & finding an ECU diskette

I have just inherited an Alphastation 500 333 MHz that I am trying to get
running. I would appreciate any help on the following questions.

First, when I boot the machine, I receive the following message just
before it gets to the boot prompt (the chervon prompt) - I am not sure
what the message means or how to correct it. The message is:

 Digital AlphaStation 500/266 Console V7.0-10
        built on Mar 17 1999 at 19:01:03
Unknown clock freq 266 clock divisor set to a

Since I would expect the clock frequency to be 333, this message is a bit
disturbing.


Second, I did not receive the ECU diskette with the system. This system
is also not under contract, although I do have other systems under
contract (so I have firmware CD's, etc.). How can I create an ECU
diskette? (I believe I have an ECU diskette for an AlphaServer 2100, but
I would assume that doesn't help for this AlphaStation 500).

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tom
