All attempts to interact via the keyboard fail. I have a Null Modem cable I use with all my Sun Sparc boxes and after using breakouts and other alternate schemes Im quite sure that something in the port A input processing isn’t working. If I fill the keyboard buffer on boot I can occasionally get the test menu to come up so something is getting through once in a while.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Request:</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">I’ve had other machines in my collection where the some of 7400 logic got shocked with a static charge and it’s relatively easy to debug and fix if you have the schematics.
