They don't allocate addresses as you put disks
on... you have to
configure the board using the SET HOST command on a uVaxIII
(which is what I did). I think you have to set the board to a
specific address to program it first, and once programmed you set
it back to the normal use address (there is a 4-switch switchpak
on the board)
Megan, do you know the jumper settings for the KFQSA ?
Or anyone else ?
Yesterday I did another try.
The KDA50 works now at address 172150, with the KFQSA removed. The command "show
qbus"
finally lists the controller.
Antonio named I link for KFQSA documents but they don't have documents online for it.
How do I have to set jumpers for this board?
My VAX4000 found the RA-92, attached to the KDA (DUA0).
The userguide of the KDA50 refers to a programm called MDM in order to do some diagnostics
with the KDA and FORMAT the harddrive.
My idea is to boot NetBSD over Ethernet and install it on the RA-92 (there are no other
drives installed in the VAX!).
Can BSD find the drive directly, format it and be installed on it, or do I have to need a
special programm as MDM to format the drive?
Pierre
