Hi Weblacky & Others,

I presume the machine was stopping on POD, as someone had set the debug flag to non zero.

I see you clear the logs, but didn't you also reset the L1 debug flag to zero to stop machine stopping at POD ?

Yeah, I had him do that (clearing and resetting debug on to 0 on L1).  We assumed that the previous owner may have commanded it to go into L1 Debug during troubleshooting and then put it in storage. We saw no other error at the serial PROM to answer why it had ended up in debug.  However it could be due to a dead snaphat. But I'm unaware if a dead shaphat causes you to go into POD at first initialization. Maybe it does and I have forgotten?

Either way, after clearing debug things seemed normal for now.   We haven't heard back about the full experience because the time the user didn't have a DVI monitor and keyboard/mouse hooked up to the system.  They were installing Irix solely via serial Terminal.  Not my cup of tea but they're at the full PROM so should be OK.
