Hi All,

Special thanks to Paul for his answer.
As reported to Paul (Sorry I have been rude I forgot to post the group)I =
am
still facing some problems as it seems that the machine does not "load" t=
he
software downloaded fom the Digital FTP server.
Could it be linked to some switch config inside the machine?

As I have been browsing thru various documents lately I finaly found out =
that
the alpha had two sets of "flash" roms, one for each "system" ARC and SRM=
,
maybe the "system" version I have is already loaded for SRM and it is jus=
t
question to know how to activate it???
Current version of my arc system seems to be 4.56.

Thanks for your comments and sorry to waste your time as I am sure you al=
ready
answered that kind of questions a thousand times. (I should have gone fur=
ther
up in the archive, but have little time.)

Regards.

Alain

P.S. By the way, I like your Quotes.
