What are the full details of the error log?

From the service processor menu, there's an option to look at various logs; I don't have the machine in front of me, so I can't quote the menu path. I think it's under "System Information"

What firmware level is on the machine?

3F040127

Quote:

What level of CD have you tried booting from?

AIX 5.2 circa 2007, and 5.3 circa 2005

Quote:

Does an old level diag CD boot?

Quote:

How are you trying to boot from CD?

The system never gets to the point where one could boot from a CD (ie the double beep, hit F5, etc)

I did some more reading, and it appears that the only ways to recover from this are to replace the main board or install a floppy (27L4378) and try to re-flash the prom. I found a floppy online for < $10 and it's on the way.
