So... maybe I just completely missed the memo on this, and maybe there's still
something wrong with my backplane... is it possible that slot 9 of the 11/40's CPU
backplane is wired *specifically* for an M7800? I guess I need to spend some time tonight
seeing what the differences are... but now I need to go attend to a cranky 2yo who just
woke up from a nap?
I seem to recall something similar with one of the 11/40?s I was working on. I believe
that because the 11/40 CPU backplane is wired for an M787 that things don?t work quite
right if you try and install an M7856 into the SPC slot in the backplane and try and use
it and not the M787. There is a way to jumper the CPU backplane so you can use na M7856
and not the M787. I haven?t really investigated it in detail (and it?s been a long time
since I messed around with the 11/40 at that level).
