Hi all,
I recently started to resurrect my old Alpha (Digital PWS 600au). It
was spewing a garbled mess on serial console, so I had to find a PCI
video card to install in it first. Then a PS/2 keyboard. Then it
turned out to have reverted to the PWS 600a (AlphaBIOS, supposed to
run Windows NT). This was due to a dead battery (no wonder, the
machine was in my storage for ~13 years). However, with the battery
replaced, it booted fine into the OpenBSD 3.7 install that was still
on there.
Here's the dmesg from the latest snapshot (which is from October)
followed by the dmesg from what was still there:
I'll see if I can bring it into the 6.3 world too...
