Hi All,
Sorry to be off subject, but I was given a Sun 3/470 a few months
ago, and when I tried to boot it today, I had no luck at all. When I
power up, the keyboard LEDs flash once, then nothing more happens,
e.g. screen stays dark, no disk activity to be heard, etc. On the
back of the system there is a red LED, and it's slowly flashing,
which I take to be a bad sign. The LED is located on what looks like
the I/O card, there are sockets for the keyboard (used), monitor
(used) ethernet (used), serial ports A & B (both unused) on the
card.
If anyone can offer advice or point me off to some good diagnostic
material, I'd be very grateful.
Thanks in advance,
Jim
