This happens when some configuration program fails to update the EEPROM checksum when it changes the configuration. The usual source is changing the network boot parameters. I can understand why the program skips the checksum update -- 3Com has changed the checksum location and which bytes are checked several times. -- Donald Becker [email protected] Scyld Computing Corporation http://www.scyld.com 410 Severn Ave. Suite 210 Scyld Beowulf cluster system Annapolis MD 21403 410-990-9993 _______________________________________________ vortex mailing list [email protected] http://www.scyld.com/mailman/listinfo/vortex
