[rescue] newest rescue (failure/success/failure)

[Walter Belgers]

Hi all,

Thanks for your helpfull comments. I took out all board (including the P4
board) and sprayed everything with electrical contact cleaner that I had
forgotten I had (the can is probably 20 years old, but was still spraying). I
inserted the boards and used force to get them into the backplane securely. It
escapes me why there is so little room. You just cannot insert the boards one
by one without damaging the fingers on them.

When the P4 graphics board is in, it still gives me the error

IOC Random Data Block Read (Central Cache on) Test {pass 0x00000001}
<P4 Lego Color Video board [00000060] detected>
P4 Overlay Frame Buffer Write/Write/Read Test {pass 0x00000001}
Unexpected bus error, address=50800000, a5=50800000
Unexpected bus error, address=50800000, a5=50800004
Unexpected bus error, address=50800004, a5=50800008
[..]

I removed it and tried to boot.

Suddenly I have a memory board that did not get detected before. The Dataram
board appears to hold 32MB (makes more sense) and I now have 2 8MB boards in
there as well. The SCSI board is now also working and I could boot!

Success at last. Now I only need to find a P4 color graphics adapter. Sounds a
bit like unobtainium.

Walter.
