Hi,
can anybody help me with some error messages I get.
I have been given a MicroVAX 3400 without any harddisks.
During startup (not boot) it produces the following error messages :

KA640-A V5.3, VMB 2.7
Performing normal system tests.

Normal operation not possible.

The uVAX contains several QBUS cards, including a TK70 and a 8Mb RAM
card. I have removed all card except the CPU card and the termination
card (at least I believe it is) at the other end of the bus.
But the uVAX produces the same error messages, from which I conclude
that the there are something wrong with the CPU card.
The uVAX boot from the tape drive (both NetBSD and OpenVMS tapes).
Originally it had one more error message, but at the first test (boot)
with a VMS standalone-backup the VMS complained about a blown fuse on
the DSSI bus. I replaced the fuse and the message disappeared.
I found 3 fuses on the CPU card, only one of them was faulty.

When I tested the ethernet card, I got the following message:

>>>b esa0
(BOOT/R5:0 ESA0)



  2..
-ESA0
?4B CTRLERR, ESA0
?06 HLT INST
        PC = 00000CC6
Failure.

I have a InfoServers which I tried to boot VMS from (this works with other
uVAXen/VAXstations I have).
(and yes I used b/100 esa0 to do this, the message above was produced as an
example)

All this said, my questions are:
1) What does the error messages mean ?
2) Are the DSSI gone ?
3) Are the ethernet gone ?
4) Are any other parts gone ?
5) If they are useless can the be disabled ?
