    I run 'arc' or 'alphabios' at the console and it prints "loading ARC
    firmware" and then it hangs. The LED display goes through the following
    sequence...

            AlphaBIOS - 0x04

    then

            AlphaBIOS - 0x06

    then after several minutes..

            AlphaBIOS v5.71

    and no change at the console, still says "loading ARC Firmware"

    The system was originally on SRM v6.6-19 and I even backed down to v6.5-19
    and it does the same thing.

    This is a refurb system and I'm going through the initial setup. So it's
    my first attempt at running arc on this system.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,
