98.0. "Problem installing VMS7.0 on AS1000A 5/333" by DEKVC::SWSPKO () Wed May 07 1997 05:39
I have a problem installing OpenVMS on Alphaserver 1000A 5/333.
It was originally configured as NT system, and I switched to SRM to install
OpenVMS AXP 7.0.
The firmware version installed was as follows.
1) SRM V4.8-74, ARC V5.28, VMS Palcode V1.19-4
I tried firmware 3.7 update CD also.
2) SRM V4.6-227, ARC V5.21, VMS Palcode V1.18-2
The image is [ALPHA1000A]AS1000A_E5_V4_6.EXE
3) SRM V4.5-80 , ARC V5.13, VMS Palcode V1.21-4
The image is [ALPHA1000A]AS1000A_E5_V4_5.EXE
I tried all possible combination using 1),2),3) and VMS7.0, VMS6.2, VMS6.2 1H2,
but failed with the same CPU halt message.

jumping to bootstrap code
Halted CPU0
Halt code = 5
Halt instruction executed
PC = 2000fd98
Firmware 3.2 update CD comes with VMS6.2, and Firmware 3.5 update CD comes with
VMS6.2 1H2. I tried to setup those 2 firmware CD using ">>> b -fl 0,a0 dka400",
but got the same CPU halt message.
Firmware 3.7 update CD was the only one I got success, which comes with Digital
-Unix4.0.
Is there any expert out there to help me? I'd really appreciate it.
Best Regards,
Lee

| VMS support for the 1000A 5/333 was added to V6.2-1H3 (not -1H2) and V7.1 (not
V7.0), so nothing you've tried so far SHOULD work (and you report that it
doesn't).
Try either V6.2-1H3 or V7.1.
