MVME 6100
ROC1 ethernet address: 0001AF1998B5
ROC1 ethernet address: 0001AF1998B6
MPC7457 RISC G4 processor (PPC family)

Download files from JLAB

I downloaded the boot file and VXworks kernel from JLAB

/site/coda/kern/5.5/boot/boot6100_122.bin  
/site/coda/kern/5.5/vx6100_v4.1 

and put in /tftpboot subdirectory on Host computer


Debug Connector

I then used the serial port on the host computer to interface with the MVME6100 via the "DEBUG" port. The debug port took an RJ45 standard cable so I got and RJ45-DB9 converter. This seemed to work out of the box. Just in case I ever need to make my own connector record the pinouts below.


Information below is Table 5-11 pg 92 of this reference

ROC Pin# DB9 Pin # DB9 shell Signal
1 1 Blue DCD (Carrier Detect)
2 7 Orange RTS (Request to Send)
3 5 Black GNDC
4 3 Red TX (Transmit)
5 2 Green RX (Recieve)
6 5 Yellow GNDC
7 8 Brown CTS (Clear to Send)
8 4 White DTR (Data Terminal Ready)

MVME6100 BOOT screen

Minicom

You can use "minicom -s" to set the default parameter to communication

I found the ROC was connected to /dev/ttyS1

I used "minicom" on the host computer to talk to the ROC. You have to be super user in order to run minicom unless you change the default permissions. The speed should be 9600 baud which you set using the keyboard sequence "Ctrl-A Z P E".

Ping another computer to check network

I was unable to ping unless I used the "LAN1" RJ45 etherenet port

MVME6100> tftpGet -cCLIENT_IP_ADDRESS -sSERVER_IP_ADDRESS -fFILENAME

CLIENT_IP_ADDESS is the IP address of the computer receiving the file
SERVER_IP_ADDRESS is the IP address of the computer hosting the file (by default tftp uses the subdirectory /tftpboot)

set BOOTA dip switch

After flashing you flip dipswitch #2 on S4 fo off and powercycle

I moved the dip switch on S4 labeled "BOOT A" to OFF

The above error results when the "Normal" dip switch on S4 is set to "OFF". The S4 dipswitch are now set to
