Zane, did you check the internal fans? Some of the AXP boxen
won't even POST if the CPU fan isn't reporting. On my 164LX, even a
good fan with "standard" RPM signal isn't what it wants.
Yep, that was one of the first things I checked. After having read
up more on the XP1000, it shows that if the fan is out (at least the
CPU fan), it will power off after 1 second.
MONK has been an XP1000 for about 10 hours.
I must say that it has been interesting how many Layered products
seem to put the disk name in their startup procedures (DKA0 vs. DKC0
I'm now using). I setup logicals to handle this for my own stuff
years ago, but didn't have all the layered products installed that I
now use.
