SGI Fuel R14000 - IRIX
Hardware info on main page.
This machine runs IRIX.
History
2011-07-11: with the "new" and working VPro V10 in the machine, it powered up without problems (ok, the date was wrong), so time for some info (done via the serial console):

2010-06-30: Ok, running remote X session to the Fuel works. From my FreeBSD workstation, I run Xnest :1 -query <IP address of Fuel>,
for example: Xnest :1 -query 10.1.161.16. And up comes the Login window on the Fuel. Cool, very cool!
2010-06-27: I managed to power up the machine without the graphics "crashing". Here is some info:
root@IRIS# /usr/gfx/gfxinfo Graphics board 0 is "ODYSSEY" graphics. Unmanaged 1280x1024 BUZZ version B.2 PB&J version 1 32MB memory Banks: 2, CAS latency: 3 Monitor 0 type: CPQ 5013 Xvc info not available for unmanaged boards root@IRIS# /usr/gfx/gfxtopology pipe 0 g @ 001c01/I:13 ASTODYV10 030-1826-002 -A MWY336 input k @ 001c01/I:4 m @ 001c01/I:4
I am a bit nervous about restarting xdm etc now.
Lets try this first: /usr/gfx/setmon -x 1280x1024_60, see if that helps. The data is stored here:
# cat /var/X11/Xvc/Odyssey0_TimingTable 1280x1024_60 8 0 Exciting...
2010-06-27: Hmm, I have got a newer L1 controller image:
root@IRIS# flashsc -version /usr/cpu/firmware/l1.bin flashsc: (System Controller Flash Utility) - Version 1.0.7 Multi-image binary contains 3 flash images. Image 0: L1 version 1.24.8, Built 09/15/2003 17:07:44 [Base 1MB image] Image 1: L1 version 1.24.8, Built 09/15/2003 17:08:18 [Fuel/PE 1MB image] Image 2: L1 version 1.24.8, Built 09/15/2003 17:08:38 [2MB image]
Must check if that goes in:
root@IRIS# flashsc --sc /usr/cpu/firmware/l1.bin local flashsc: (System Controller Flash Utility) - Version 1.0.7 ============= Updating (local) ============= Checking current flash image status. Updating L1 flash image A to version 1.24.8 Erasing existing flash data: 100% complete Writing new flash image: 100% complete Validating new flash image.
Ok, that looks promising. Let's see:
root@IRIS# l1cmd flash status Flash image B currently booted Image Status Revision Built ----- ------------- ---------- ----- A default 1.24.8 09/15/2003 17:08:18 B valid 1.16.2 10/16/2002 14:37:15
Yep, good.
Or not. I tried with l1cmd flash default reset, but still it boots from the old image:
# l1cmd flash status Flash image B currently booted Image Status Revision Built ----- ------------- ---------- ----- A default 1.24.8 09/15/2003 17:08:18 B valid 1.16.2 10/16/2002 14:37:15
Oh, well.
2010-06-27: in the PROM Monitor, I tried update, followed by enableall and exit. Still no go, the graphics isn't working:
NOTICE: odsy board 0: CORRECTABLE_ECC_ERROR received [single] (1) WARNING: odsy board 0: UNCORRECTABLE_ECC_ERROR received ALERT: odsy board 0: Graphics error odsy flags: 0x14<CORRECTABLE_ECC_ERROR,UNCORRECTABLE_ECC_ERROR> odsy status0: 0x10024080<CFIFO_ENABLED,CFIFO_LW,XRFIFO_LW,RASTER_SYNC_SRC=unset,CFIFO_SYNC_SRC=unset,DMA_SYNC_SRC=unset> WARNING: OdsyCreateDDRN: graphics must be (re)started starting Xserver
Irritating.
2010-06-27: even more from l1cmd:
root@IRIS# l1cmd version L1 1.16.2 (Image B), Built 10/16/2002 14:37:15 [1MB image] root@IRIS# l1cmd flash status Flash image B currently booted Image Status Revision Built ----- ------------- ---------- ----- A valid 1.16.2 10/16/2002 14:37:15 B default 1.16.2 10/16/2002 14:37:15
Useful? Perhaps:

2010-06-27: more info, from l1cmd this time:

Could be of interest in the future.
2010-06-26: Ok, the upgrade to IRIX 6.5.22 succeded, I think. Here is the output I get on the serial console after the upgrade:

Hmm, what?
I tried taking out and re-seating the graphics board, but still I get this:

Is my graphics board toast?
2010-06-26: later, after many hours (sleep, life and all that), I'm back. According to IRIX 6.5 Editions and CD Sets, I must use the Foundation CDs from my original
set, as the files downloaded from SGI doesn't have them. I need to copy the CD's. A bit convoluted, but here goes: my Linux (Ubuntu) machine only have a
usb-connected CD writer, and it doesn't want to read the cds at all, so I can't use that to dd an image off them. Luckily, it works on one of my FreeBSD machines,
which have an internal (ide) CD writer. I used the following command: dd if=/dev/acd0 of=file.iso bs=16k, for each of the three CDs (Foundation 1, Foundation 2
and Developer Foundation). Then I copied them to my Linux machine. On my Ubuntu machine I could do this:
sudo mkdir /media/cdrom1 sudo mount -o loop -t efs ~/dir/image.iso /media/cdrom1
and then I could just copy out the files. Nice! I am using DINA (running in Virtualbox on my FreeBSD workstation), so first I needed to copy all files to the dina machine.
2010-06-26: looking back at the info on Wikipedia about the Fuel, it says that IRIX 6.5.17 is the first supported version. Oh well, lets try with 6.5.22 tomorrow.
2010-06-26: I started to install IRIX 6.5.16 on a blank drive: I followed this procedure, entered PROM monitor,
then boot -f cdrom(1,6,8)sash64 cdrom(1,6,7)stand/fx.64 --x, and pressed enter until I was on the main menu.I followed the other steps, that took care of
initializing the disk. Unfortunately, when I try to install software, I get this:
System Maintenance Menu 1) Start System 2) Install System Software 3) Run Diagnostics 4) Recover System 5) Enter Command Monitor Option? 2 Installing System Software... Press <Esc> to return to the menu. 1) Remote Directory 2)[Local CD-ROM] *a) Local SCSI CD-ROM drive 6, on controller 1 Enter 1-2 to select source type, a to select the source, <esc> to quit, or <enter> to start: Insert the installation CD-ROM, then press <enter>: A 000: *** TLB Refill Exception on node 0 A 000: *** EPC: 0xc00000001fc444fc (0xc00000001fc444fc) A 000: *** Press ENTER to continue.
Crap. OK, a bit of Google, and this in the command monitor:
>> setenv console d >> exit
and then I am back to the install program again. Must not forget to set console to 'g' afterwards. Ok, installation done. I wonder if this works now.
