Important stuff:
3.0-19981208-SNAP
Digital EBP30 board. Bought new in box. The docs that came with it
identify it
as a PC64 (other docs on the Digital ftp site refer to this board
either as a PC64
or a PCI64, which is not the same as a PC164 -- that's a one, not the
letter I),
part of the "Cabriolet" family of boards. This board seems to have
been made circa
1996 and has the 21064A CPU clocked at the default rate of 275Mhz.
64 Meg of RAM.
Matrox Millenium (Digital OEM)
Onboard IDE w/ Fujitsu 1G drive
Digital NIC
Installed the SRM console from the Digital EBSDK that Wilco Bulte sent
me.
When I enter `boot dva0` at the SRM prompt (gleaned from the NetBSD
install):
>>>boot dva0
(boot dva0.0.0.0.1 -flags 0)
block 0 of dva0.0.0.0.1 is a valid boot block
reading 14 blocks from dva0.0.0.0.1
bootstrap code read in
base = 116000,image_start = 0, image_bytes = 1c00
initializing HWRPB at 2000
initializing page table at 108000
initializing machine state
setting affinity to the primary CPU
jumping to bootstrap code
After printing this it reads the fd for a bit, flashes the keyboard
lights twice,
reads the fd a bit more, and then hangs.
Are there flags I should pass to the boot line? Any other suggestions?
N.B. The RedHat cabrio-s ("-s" for SRM version) does the same thing. I
know: Linux
eewwwww. :-)
N.B^2. The board runs the ARC, Debug Monitor ROM, and SRM firmware so I
have no
reason to think the board is bad.
(I'm subscribed now to freebsd-alpha.)
Thanks,
