Booting! (Was: not boot for you! (Was: Re: HD size & NWS-3710))
Ok, it turned out all that was wrong was a bad (discharged?)
NVRAM. I had a new one I bought for one of my Sun SS2s and placed it
in the machine:

So, I am finally pretty happy that the machine runs as it should. I
may add a battery to the old NVRAM chip just so I can put it back
without worrying about it going boink on me again (well, if it does I
could then replace its external battery, which I can get for under $3
any day of the week new or free by going over old PCs ;).
Now, I do have a question: it seems the CPU is the same as the one
used in a DEC5000, like my 5000/25. How fast is the CPU?
