Hi!

After getting a DS5k/25 successfully to boot up, I tried the same
on a recently acquired DS5k/240 with 224 MB of RAM ;-)
Sadly, it stops with error messages unknown to me, prior to
send *any* requests over the net.

Here is the boot-up output of the serial console and the cnfg-output:

KN03-AA V5.1b

?STF (4: Ln#0 Kbd self test)

?STF (4: Ln#1 Pntr self test)

>>boot 3/tftp

(there is no keyboard or printer attached to it, so I disregarded
the error messages on boot-up)

This box has a TC-FDDI-card in addition to the on-board components,
which I haven't pulled out yet (I have pulled out the presto-server
card and a TCE option card, but to no avail).
Is the ROM version (5.1b) too old to boot via TFTP? I don't have
a mop server handy and this box has no drives currently attached
to it. Or is it dead? Has someone seen this error message before?

TIA,
Uli
