Subject:   Same problem, new year 2100A machine check
Message-ID:  <4011B6F6.5040306@theriver.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
Hi All,

I decided to replace a disk on the ol' 2100A. I had been running VMS on it 
without any troubles, until a disk started giving me errors. After replacing 
the disk, I decided to give 5.2 a go, thinking maybe some of the problems of 
last year may have been resolved.

No such luck.

As you can see below, it's doing the machine check at almost the same point as 
last year. In combing the archives, it seems that there were problems with 
some cards, so I yanked out all the pci cards (there were no EISA cards), 
still a machine check.

This machine booted and ran stable under 4-xx with a uniprocessor kernel

It seems you may have to disable the machine checks in order to get this beast 
to boot, any pointers on where to start?
I'd like to play with it with FBSD before going back to VMS.

Below is the console firmware pre-boot diag and then the actual boot -v output 
and then the show config and show fru.

Cheers

Tom
