I'm new to these machines, the below is a newbies guesses :) Perhaps your M7098 (UBI) module is set to autoboot from one of the proms upon powerup, and that's why it comes up in run mode. This is a personal preference thing, but I never have a machine autoboot to anything other than the console emulator. I then always select the boot device by hand. Many people instead set the switches on the UBI to attempt a boot from a particular device upon powerup. This may be why you power on in run mode. I would suggest that you look at the 10 position dip switch on the UBI and set 1,2, and 7 on and all the rest off. Then power up and see if you dont get just the console prompt. If I was to make a newbie guess... you have a problem with your RL02 subsystem (drive, cable, or controller) and your UBI is perhaps set to autoboot the DL prom. So when you power it on it attempts to boot the RL02 and hangs because of another problem. Setting the switches as above would identify this possibility. If it then comes up to the CONSOLE prompt correctly, you can at least know it's time to zero in on the RL02 subsystem. Jay
