Check your backplane for NPR wires, especially if you

slots. As we rehash here in the list from time to time, you have to
have a complete grant chain both for interrupts and for DMA in a
Unibus box for it to boot and run properly.
You might have to lay hands on some grant cards if you have empty slots.
I have seen grant cards on ebay but I'm not exactly sure what purpose
they serve. Can someone enlighten me? Also, what are "NPR wires"?
Surely nothing to do with National Public Radio :-).
