Hi everyone. I'm hoping that one of the VAX experts out there can help me
figure out how to get my 3100 booting. I managed to cobble together the
necessary cabling and was able to run a "TEST 50" from the serial console.
Unfortunately my Google-fu isn't sufficient to help me figure out what the
results mean. Here is what I'm getting below. Any ideas where my problem
lies?
Does not necessarily mean much, bad battery? Was there a reason why you
chose to run test 50, from an earlier post?
I may have missed earlier posts on this machine, but what does the command
"show dev" reveal at the >>> prompt?
I have a thread on my site about booting my 3100 that might help if you can
boot or partially boot. Search for "3100" on my site.
