[HECnet] RSX-11 booted!

[Cory Smelosky]

Cleaning the board had no effect. Went back to the other one.

I identified a failing row of chips and tried swapping some around bit after awhile anything above 128KW became glitchy. (I'll clean contacts tomorrow)

Also...it seems I had a bad DELQA on the bus which probably wasn't helping.

So, what is the status now? It don't work?
DMA works fine!   However other tests and SCSI FIFO does not.

Hmm. Ok.
I assume you have CPU in slot 1, and memory in slot 2. Slot 3 is also Q/CD,

Yeah.

and after that (if I remember right) you have Q/Q slots. Have you tried minimizing the config to just the minimum required to test the machine?

Yeah.   I also wiped down the board a bit...it gave ECC errors before even doing memory access this time.

Putting the project on hold until the board dries. (It's the board i'm 98% sure, the behaviour is different enough to not indicate any other boards. Either it'll work after this...or it'll look really damn clean!)
