609.0. "how do I install a mylex EISA?" by 45862::HILTON (Save Water, drink beer) Wed Apr 23 1997 18:19

    Further to my last note, I got hold of an EISA Mylex board, when I plug
    it in and power on, I go into the ECU and it's looking for config files
    
    APBO2CD3.cfg / !PBO2CD3.cfg
    
    which I haven't got. If I force it to use the generic Mylex cfg file on
    the ECU, it goes back into the ECU looking for the above files.
    
    When I power on I get  message:
    
    slot 2 ID configuration error.
    
    Any ideas?

	Have you already searched http://www.mylex.com/ for the config files? /l
609.2	Maybe card has wrong ID	NESBIT::afirm1.ayo.dec.com::Gordon	Gordon McNab	`Thu Apr 24 1997 09:34`	11
	If this file is not shipped with the card then it could be that the card itself is reporting the wrong EISA ID to the configuration utility. Then the ECU would be looking for the wrong filename on the disk. > APBO2CD3.cfg / !PBO2CD3.cfg Just something to look out for, Gordon
609.3	what do I do next then?	CHEFS::hhlms1.lzo.dec.com::hiltong		`Thu Apr 24 1997 10:28`	7

609.4	Is the card broken?	NESBIT::afirm1.ayo.dec.com::Gordon	Gordon McNab	`Thu Apr 24 1997 10:53`	10
	If the card ID is wrong... maybe it says what it should be somewhere in the manual... then the card is most likely broken. I had one EISA card that showed the wrong ID but showed a different one each time the ECU ran. Gordon
