SGI Onyx2 startup?
So I finally managed to start up the Onyx2 after nearly a year of having it. 

I have a GE16-4 and two IR3s installed along with 4G between two nodeboards with dual 400s each.

Trying to startup causes this screen: https://imgur.com/a/JGOG7GE

After about a minute of running. 

I tried running the diagnostic mode but it trips my breaker if I have another computer on the same breaker and I don't have the ability to run it in a different room at the moment. 

If I started up in normal mode it doesn't show anything on the diag port.

Which port on the onyx 2 is used for serial console access? Hoping that I can get serial console work so that I can at least see some of the error messages or more of the problem.

I hope it's the display generator and not the graphics engine or the raster managers cuz those were very expensive
