Well here is the lower spec machine from the £2.5K eBay auction..

Oh Chap, well, sort of commiserations (I say sort of, since I can't really mean it, since I did win). Where in the UK are you? Hehe, totally understand. So the fellow had four tezros in total - egads. I'm based in Colchester, so my consolation prize to not winning was not having to take the day off...

Tonight's update, I have Tezro 1 working fine again. Will post a hinv since it's rather spiffing.

Now working on Tezro 2 which has the SCSI issue.

I suppose I should have done my research before trying to carry out a fresh install, but the flame installation which was on the disk was useless to me anyway! I had carried out fresh installs on my other machines with the disk set, so I assumed it would work on the Tezro! (so you learn) Do you hav...

Good job I'm not asking that of you then..

Well done uunix :-) I am the bidder £2500.00 you bid over :-) Enjoy, I'm super jelly ! That price was as high as I was willing to go. Hope you get some decent use out of them. Now I have to look around to find a relatively decent speed SGI that won't break the bank or need shipping from the US. Oh ...

Another day another dollar.. Now back on the non working machine. So reading this thread http://forums.nekochan.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=16727613&p=7359126&hilit=timeout+uart#p7359126 has helped me get a bit further. After a reset I'm moving forward. Seems to be SCSI related anyway. 001c0...

I have a qic tape with NetFlash backup tool on it. Were they called qic tapes?

"enableall" is the command which will enable disabled memory. Are you at least able to get as far as the prom menu? Connected via l1 currently, enableall is not available? There doesn't actually seem a lot you can do with the memory. Ctl T - help: 001c01-L1>help Commands are: check fru pr...

Update... still not working. Have swapped out most parts now into other system with the exception of the CPU board and the power supply. Also swapped the memory around which has left me with reduced memory in the working system. Testing/Initializing memory ............... *** Swapping bank 0 with ba...

Well I do have something that maybe of interest, but It depends if you are in a rush, I'm in the middle of sorting out another machine at the moment.

It's an Octane 2 with V12 in very good condition. Would have to clone the disk or do you a new install.

hmmmmmmm

I'm sure you know this, the 1GB sticks have white markings and the 512MB sticks have green markings. The memory must be matched in this way: Just removed and reset memory, and It passes.
