Unfortunately we've hit a complete show-stopper
right off the bat. My
machine has a complete set of compute node and I/O boards, but is
missing the crucial 'NX' board; the board in the CM that interfaces to
the front-end.
You may be in real trouble. Ernie at CMS told me once that the cards
for talking to a CM (either the CM or the Sun/Symbolics side) were
always far less common than the processor boards. When I was at CMS
long ago, there were none to be had - just rows and rows of CMs going
to the glue factory.
