[rescue] Level 15 Interrupt

[Shawn Wallbridge]

Well, it looks like it may have been memory. I ran test-all and I had tons
of memory errors.

I had another SS5 (and another), so I just pulled the drive out of my dead
one and threw it in the 'spare' one and it booted fine. Unfortunately I only
have 4-8MB sticks (501-2470) and one (now dead) 32MB stick for my SS5's. I
had planned on putting the 'spare' machine into service next week, so now I
desperately need more memory.

Anyone have some 501-2471's kicking around. I need at least 3 (I didn't
realize that machine only had 32MB), but I could use 24.

We have had some power problems today. When I got home, I realized my SS5
was not up (but everything else was still running). The light was on, but it
wasn't responding. I don't have a head on it, so I hooked up a serial cable.

It's running Debian (woody) and has been for quite a while.

I hit enter a couple times and got an ok prompt. I typed 'boot' (which has
always worked before) and got this.....

	ok boot
	Resetting ...
	screen not found.
	Can't open input device.
	Keyboard not present.  Using tty for input and output.

	SPARCstation 5, No Keyboard
	ROM Rev. 2.15, 32 MB memory installed, Serial #8149727.
	Ethernet address 8:0:20:7c:5a:df, Host ID: 807c5adf.


	Rebooting with command:
	Boot device: /iommu/sbus/espdma at 5,8400000/esp at 5,8800000/sd at 3,0  File and
args:
	SILLevel 15 Interrupt
	Type  help  for more information
	ok

'boot disk' does the same thing. Obviously it is getting to the right
partition/drive since it is starting to load SILO.

Searching Google only comes up with the problem during install.

Any suggestions?
