It seems to be a faq. you _can_ install it, but you have to get from anywhere, the DEC's firmware update cd is a one place. as for me, I've done the following steps: 1. from ftp://ftp.decsy.ru/alpha/FirmWare/164SX/SRM-T4.9/ I've got the two files: fwupdate.exe and sx164srm.rom feel the difference :-) 2. put it on the blank dos floopy and do the firmware update as usual -- it will do the job 3. update it to the latest version (5.2? 5.3? ?), using the single file update -- now it will work. 4. enjoy :-) ps if there is any FAQ on alpha's freebsd -- this is FAQ question, so put it there. -- vadik likholetov To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
