[rescue] Sun E3000 puzzle

[Gavin Hubbard]

Doh

I feel pretty dumb as the answer is in Sunsolve.

http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Devices/CPU_Module/UltraSPARC_400MHz_Ul
traII_Exx00.html#5661

According to the module notes it looks like I need to upgrade the
clockboard from 501-4286 to 501-5365 or replace my I/O board if I want to
run at 400MHz.

Regards,

Gavin

Hi Lads

My 400MHz/8MB USII processors arrived today and I upgraded my E3000. The
system seems to be running quite well but one thing has me really puzzled.

When I boot into single user mode from a Solaris install CD and run prtdiag
it reports the CPUs as 336MHz with an 8MB Ecache. The installed CPUs are
part 501-5661.

Since I was expecting to see 400MHz, I'm a bit puzzled. Is there something
really obvious I'm missing? (like a patched version of prtdiag). FWIF the
Openboot PROM is 3.2.28

Regards,

Gavin
