| AlphaServer 1000A 5/333, Customer wanted DUNIX 3.2C got 3.2G.
After downgrade from FIS 4.0B doconfig shows the same undefined ace*
entries as stated in previous notes or in sable notes confrence (as
quoted in .3).
FW Downgrade to 4.5 (from FW CD Supplied with 3.2G) didn't help. The
same ace* errors plus lmf cannot identify hardware (indeed already
>>> show config say that it is 1000A 5/***)
ECU 1.8 didn't know it too. From ECU 1.10 I tried both WNT and OSF/VMS
versions. No difference among them - the same ace* errors. OK there
was one difference, After WNT ECU I could got | on german PCXAL
keyboard.
The solution was to copy ace definition from GENERIC option file
(as is with 'controller * slot ?'). The doconfig build kernel without
problem.
What is ace ?
Will such kernel (with 'controller * slot ?' ) be stable ?
Is this configuration 3.2G / AS1000A 5/333 / SRM 4.7 supported ?

PS
I tried to find comprehensive table of FW/HW/OS versions compatibilites
but failed. Any pointers ?
TIA Seva
