Hello,
After a last relocation, my HP D370 fails to boot. In the lcd-display it
cycles trough a number of messages starting with "FLT...". Has anyone
resources on the messages and the cause of the faults? It so happens
that I have some spare parts (partly from a long gone D210) and I like
to know what to replace or fix to get the D370 going once again.
Thanks in advance
C.Beerse.
btw: this message has been crosposted to both the parisc-linux and the
hpux admin since it is about stuff before the os boots.

About the os before the crash, I'm not sure anymore, I have disk packs for both linux and hp-ux and change them frequently just to test and check stuff. I do know it has the latest firmware installed since ages so that should not be the problem. At this point, the only think I can do is remove all hardware that is not needed to boot and see what happens. Then restore items one by one and see which one is the faulty one. From an other answer, I got the message "flt..." is for 'floating point unit' hence I might even need to exchange CPUs...
