It -is- worth noting that the addin NIC won't come up off a hard

This is weird too. Which firmware version does this C200 have?
The parisc-linux FAQ explains where to find newer revs.
Will make a firmware upgrade tomorrow's first job. If I brick one of
my machines, I can always work on the other one. Thanks for pointing out
what should have been obvious... I never thought to check the firmware.
(c) built-in NIC should work fine. No idea what's going on here.
I'm not aware of any code changes that might break this.

THE QUESTIONS:
Do I need to get HPUX working on this machine in order to perform a
successful firmare upgrade? If not, any clues as to where I went
wrong?
mmm recently I did such kind of fw upgrade on my d380 running only linux
(debian or ubuntu) without any pb.
That said effectively I extracted this 'patch' on a hpux system so that
tools like sum, cc, uudecode, ... give results this auto-extract expect
;-) (so just find a system running hpux to extract stuff would be helpfull)
I have also seen some vague references to upgrading firmware via
CD, but no definite instructions as to WHAT should be burned, or how;
I'm leaving the BOOTP lifimage option for a last resort.
Any reason why "dd if=CC2X0063.frm of=/dev/sdb" followed by a boot
from secondary SCSI would be contraindicated once my sum issue
is resolved?
no clue, sorry ;-)
Can anyone provide a known-good md5sum for CC2X0063.frm under debian?
Well I grab the patch of your interest and extract it on a hpux (without
pb ;-) and compute this requested md5sum:
# md5sum CC2X0063.frm
7ec22db29ecc3f0f1963bbeecb36e1ab CC2X0063.frm
hopefully the same on my debian:
$ md5sum CC2X0063.frm
7ec22db29ecc3f0f1963bbeecb36e1ab CC2X0063.frm
;-)
That said I grab those 2 extracted file in a tar.gz, if you have some
url where can I push it anonymously?
(or by email privately (to avoid m-l overload ;-))
hth,
Joel
