Re: [foxboro] NVRAM

Claudio,

Have you attempted a "boot -r" from the OK prompt in order to have new video
card discovered and the driver configured?

I have a crt connected to the primary graphics adapter, (and another to =
the
second one) but after booting, when Xwindows start, it can=B4t find =
/dev/fb1.
Reading into the OpenBoot configuration we have:
        ...=09
        /pci@1f,0/pci@1/SUNW,m64B@1
        ...
but in the WP that boots, we have
        ...
        /pci@1f,0/pci@1/SUNW,m64B@1
        /pci@1f,0/pci@1/SUNW,m64B@2
        ...
So we think that Xwindows looks for the first video card and in the =
NVRAM it
does=B4t exist. The system boots and is posible to access it through a =
remote
terminal.
Maybe I'm wrong, but after we replaced the NVRAM we want to have the WP
running without performing a Day 0 instalation.
