Dave Fischer<p>We made some progress on the Cray at the museum today.</p><p>We suspected the reason the Cray I/O subsystem was unresponsive was dead NVRAM chips. We wound up configuring a new NVRAM chip with all the correct values in a separate machine of similar vintage (Sparcstation 1+) and then moving the chip over to the Themis VME board in the Cray.</p><p>It worked! We can now talk to the Cray I/O system.</p><p>Getting closer to booting the machine for real...</p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RetroComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RetroComputing</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/RCSRI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RCSRI</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/Supercomputer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Supercomputer</span></a></p>
