His log shows settings are incorrect or missing for SCSI controller and Ethernet (at times). This appears to be a "hardware not found issue". He likely has a serial but that doesn't prove the SRAM DS1200AB chip he got magically supports having the correct entries after initialization. Log indicates when accessing HW entry on BASEIO settings...nothing is found.

I think the accessing of the inventory settings or the writing of them isn't working due to wrong RTC. The serial issue is farther down the list but he's not complaining of it in his logs.

Seems to say it's not finding hardware, then tries to reinit hardware inventory...still not finding hardware. I'm questioning is this RTC he used (which isn't a the correct one) is the reason for the missing hardware due to incorrect entries...which it's trying it fix. System Serial isn't a part of the base issue for now...finding basic IO hardware and initializing is.
