• Boot PROM changes occur only after cold boot of PC
This message displays following a saved change to the boot ROM configuration. Boot
ROM changes are not in effect until a hardware reset is initiated—either push the reset
button, or turn the system off, wait ten seconds, then turn it back on.
•
Error — no new adapter
This message displays when the user has attempted to enable a disabled Ethernet
controller, but the software never found the disabled adapter. Either the address is
wrong or the adapter card is faulty.
•
No interrupt available for configuration
This message displays when there is no free interrupt to assign to the Ethernet
controller. The only solution is to determine where all the interrupts are configured,
and to free an interrupt that is redundant or unnecessary.
•
Cannot initiate an adapter with a disabled interrupt
This message displays when a disabled interrupt has been selected. Retry with a valid
interrupt selection.
•
No NIC.
DMA Failure
These messages display when a fault is detected in the AT/LANTIC
†
chip on the
Ethernet controller. This is a fatal hardware error. Contact RadiSys Technical Support.
•
Incorrect PROM ID Byte
This message displays when there is a hardware problem in the EEPROM. I/O mode
is thus disabled. Contact RadiSys Technical Support.
•
(xfer to memory)
(xfer from memory)
Failed after X bytes with X
These messages display if there is a problem during the Buffer Memory test. The first
two messages highlight errors in the transfer of data. The third message identifies
where the data transfer error occurred. This is a fatal hardware error. Contact RadiSys
Technical Support.
•
Cable Disconnected
Cable Unterminated
These messages indicate faults in the cabling or connection. Check to see if the
network cable is in proper working order, properly connected and terminated. If the
connections are proper and the termination is acceptable, the cables are faulty. If the
cable tests good in another system, the connection is faulty.
•
No Interrupt
This message displays during the Interrupt Assignment test if the interrupt selected is
not active. Return to the setup function and select another interrupt listed as available.
•
Boot ROM Failed
This message displays during the Boot ROM Check if the boot ROM does not pass the
checksum test. The user must replace the boot ROM.
