Trying to troubleshoot my Ultra-2 2x300 machine.
The NVRAM died, so I pulled it and replaced the battery being very
careful as to polarity, etc. It has been a while since I powered it up,
but on replacing the NVRAM and powering up I get this over serial:
Hardware Power ON
Master CPU online
Master Version: xxx
Slave Version: xxx
CPU E$(M): XXX
Button Power ON
Probing keyboard done
%o0 XXX
Executing Power On SelfTest
and then it sits. I know it takes a while when heavy diags are on, but
this just sits for hours with the caps lock not even flashing and no
other keyboard lights on. Per the service manual that is DSIMM in
U604/704 (bank 8) issues, but it even does that when I have it stripped
down to a single set of DSIMMS in bank 0.
Any tips?
