Re: DS10: "failed to load execlet"?



What kind of CD are you trying to boot? I suppose VMS, but which
version? Make sure you have a version that supports the system.

So I have a DS10 that I bought from Island and left in a box for
months. (We foolishly bought it without a video card, and then I was
fussing with an unsupported old card for too long, and now I have a
nice ATI card that succeeds in driving a VGA display with the
console.) Any warranty is already over.

Console software is 7.2-1 with a 2006 date.

The CD drive reports itself as CD-224E 9.9A and looks like the OEM
drive.

When I attempt to boot from the CD (dqbo) it sees a boot block,
reports reading 1226 blocks from dqb0.0.1.13.0, goes through to
setting affinity, reports jumping to bootstrap code, and then
%SYSBOOT-E-LDFAIL, failed to load execlet, status = 00000054

What's going on here? Do I have a CD drive problem? A CPU problem?
A duff copy of the OS? How do I tell?

(If I need to MOP boot this puppy in order to be able to tell, can
somebody point me to a step-by-step guide? I've never done MOP for anything but terminal servers and Xterms, and it's been a long time.)


Thanks,
