Sam, Unless I misplaced it, all you sent was the version of the firmware you're running and your memory configuration: Alphaserver console version 4.6-201. 64m on bank 0, 512m on bank 1. VMS Pal Revision 0x4000400010538 OSF Pal Revision 0x400090002012d VMS Palcode V.5.56-4 OSF Palcode x1.45-9 and you then said "too much to copy down all the show conf stuff! " Please, please, please get a serial console & capture the show conf output, as well as the machine check output you're seeing. We're trying to help, but you really haven't given us enough information. For what its worth, my test box is running: SRM Console V5.3-2 VMS PALcode V5.56-7, OSF PALcode V1.45-12 I doubt it, but it might help if you were to upgrade your firmware to the latest version available at ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/Alpha/firmware/readmes/as2x00.html Drew To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
