[rescue] Sun 3/60 SCSI issues

[Kurt M. Nowak]

Hi all,

I have a Sun 3/60 and I hooked up a terminated 411 box with a Sun D-50 
to HD-50 cable and a Sun terminator. The LED on the terminator does not 
come on when I power on the machine. I did some diagnostics using the 
loopback connector mentioned in Sun3Arc.org and I get an error message 
(see the end of the test output). The other tests (b,c,s and u) all are 
ok...its the external loopback test that I have problems with. I know 
its not the cable, because it works on another machine. Someone 
mentioned that I might have a faulty fuse, but both of the two fuses on 
the board are ok (checked continuity).
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!

-Kurt
