Maybe someone can help me.
I have snagged the latest firmware from the dec site, snagged the
release notes, created the floppy with the file fwupdate.exe on a pc
using a FAT formatted floppy. The version of firmwre seems to be
referred to as 5.8 for the LX and SX, 5.6 for the 164, fyi.
I have booted my LX, gotten the Alphabios screen, selected update,
gotten it to seitch to the serial port, after it seems to boot from
floppy (green led on, movement of floppy heads) and all seems well.
I get the update prompt, UPD> and I tell it to update firmware.
Now, here is where I get confused ;
the releasenotes, page 11, talks about a floppy with file
LX164SRM.ROM (downloaded from the ftp site) but the directions
from the site don't seem to say anything bout this, all they
talk about is createing the fwupdate.exe.
Going thru the archives I have kept since 2000, I see a lot of refs to
164 SRM
one ref to 164LX alphabios problem, but no reporrt of success getting
the puppy over
to srm.
For the LX, the fwupdate is 1.1MB or so, and the rom images is about
550K. Just wont
fit on a single floppy....
tried two floppies using the alpabios -path command with no success.
I am about to get out a couple of books for more colorful metaphors....
I have the flash jumper on the right spot, trying to dump this
alpha bios and get to srm.
Help
thanks
bob

Is there any way to get at sio1? upon bootup, I always get "sio1: reserved
for low-level i/o". What is telling it to be reserved? sio0 suddenly
stopped working for no apparent reason. I can send data out, but cannot
get anything back in (using tip on two machines to test it. data can only
go one way). I had been using this port for a few weeks, and now,
suddenly, it wont read in. Could be a bad cable, but it took me quite a
while to find the MMJ and adapter that I'm using now. finding another is
almost out of the question. sio1 is a standard 9 pin serial port (or so it
physically looks like anyway)
Any ideas/suggestions? Alpha 800.. 5/333 4.8-PRERELEASE (umm.. I thought
I was running -STABLE? tag=RELENG_4)

Remove the flags from sio1 in your config file & rebuild your
kernel.

This is left over from using sio1 for kernel debugging years ago.
I'll see if I can get it yanked before the next release. Its already

-STABLE *is* 4.8-PRELREASE. It will branch at the time of the
release, until then, its RELENG_4.

Is this the only reason? I think I tried using sio1 on a AS1000 for
accessing the serial console of another alpha and the AS1000 would then
lock up everyone now and then. The locking up stopped when I stopped using
sio1.

As some of you may remember, I have had problems off and on with X on my
miata. I think I've resolved some of these by taking the video card out
of the 64-bit pci slots - Xv4 is much better behaved with the card in a
32-bit slot. So much for my recent advice on using the 64-bit slots :).
Additionally, I recently downloaded the new 4.3.0 sources and tried to
build them (ie not using ports - Eric Anholt, the X ports maintainer is a
busy guy and will probably not have a port for this for this for at least
a while).
So 4.3.0, as it is distributed, doesn't build on FreeBSD alpha (I run
-current, but I think the same problems would exist for -stable).
I've sent this patch to the devel@xfree86.org mailing list, but figure
I'd pass it on here for the time being if any of you are anxious as I
was. The following patch makes the build work for me - it runs ok with my
matrox millenium II card (though my virtual consoles are permanently blank
after X runs the first time, until next reboot - anyone have ideas on
that?)
It does 3 things -- it makes a prototype for a function that doesn't have
one (I couldn't find a header file with this, so I just include it here --
seems ugly), it fixes a problem with system include files (needed an extra
one) and it fixes some broken #ifdef'd code (the #endif is several lines
past where it should be, making the file have systax errors (the function
never finds a final closing '}').

It can be done -- I did it about 1 1/2 ago. IIRC the obvious place to
download the SRM bits from had directions that either didn't work or
didn't make sense (I don't recall). I either found another directory in
the firmware collection that gave better directions; or I used the
pervious firmware collection that had other directions.
I know this isn't much help, but I did want you to know it can be done;
and we'd *love* to have the steps documented in the email archive once
you figure them out.

If i recall it correctly, you have to load the .rom file within the
AlphaBIOS's Update firmware thingie. And not the fwupdate.exe. If you do the
update with the exe, it boot once srm, and after the reboot you have your
AlphaBIOS back. I updated 2 machines yet.. and every 2 updates (1/2 year
between the BIOS changes) i run into trouble with that update thing. But it
should work like i described.
If not.. maybe you have to update your SRM after your first boot from
AlphaBIOS to srm within SRM. How to do so is described in the SRM manual
iirc.
But as David wrote.. it can be done. I did it for 2 164LX, one in Apr 2001,
and one in Nov 2001.

I've been trying to get the Linux version of Compaq FORTRAN compiler
to run on our FreeBSD Alpha box, with limited success.
Right now I'm struggling with some shared libraries. The FORTRAN
compiler need the Compaq Portable Math Library (cpml) and Compaq
Extended Math Library (cxml) RPMs. The front end executables
(f90_split, fort, fpp, fpr, and fsplit) are all dynamicall linked:
ELF 64-bit LSB executable, Alpha (unofficial), version 1 (GNU/Linux), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
But the RPMs for the cpml and cxml libraries show up with empty .so
files. I found instructions on Compaq's site that says the RPM has
scripts to re-build the .so files on installation. OK, so I /think/
I've got the .so files rebuilt with:
$ ld -shared -o libcpml_ev6.so -soname libcpml.so -whole-archive libcpml_ev6.a -no-whole-archive -lots
$ ld -shared -o libcxml_ev6.so -soname libcxml.so -whole-archive libcxml_ev6.a -no-whole-archive -lfor -lUfor -lFutil -lcpml -lots
$ file libcpml_ev6.so
libcpml_ev6.so: ELF 64-bit LSB shared object, Alpha (unofficial), version 1 (GNU/Linux), not stripped
But I have problems using them:
$ ldd /usr/lib/compaq/cfal/f90_split
/usr/lib/compaq/cfal/f90_split:
/usr/lib/compaq/cfal/f90_split: error while loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/libcpml.so: ELF file OS ABI invalid
/usr/lib/compaq/cfal/f90_split: exit status 127
Can anybody provide some direction? It feels like I'm close to getting
the FORTRAN compiler working, and if I can, I don't have to install
Linux on this box. :)

I think you're close. What you might want to try to do is to install
linux_devtools (or linux_devtools7, whichever matches your
linux_base), and then build those libs using the linux ld. Put the
results into /compat/linux/usr/lib.
The linux version should be found first when running a linux binary,
and the native versions you've produced will be found when a native
FreeBSD binary runs.
You also might want to take a peek at the Makefile for
ports/lang/compaq-cc. It does many of the same things you are trying
to do. Good luck!
