If I give a second try, it seems to be downloading ok (at least, there is some activity on the link, as the LD on the switch begins to blink). I have got a full, complete hang of the machine after using a "fore_dnld -r -d /etc" - the Compaq was completly blocked : no response to keyboard, no response to ping on the Ethernet, no response on the On/Off switch (it's an ATX board). I had to unplug the electricity plug to restart the beast. I've also tried to add some debugging messages, but it didn't help. We have installed another for board in an old P5-75 from HP, and still have problems downloading the microcode at startup.
