Page 26 Installation Instructions: AM-137 Board AM-1600/1400 Upgrade
To execute the installation program, type:
LOG SYS:
RETURN
OSINST
RETURN
The program will prompt you to enter the Product Installation Code (PIC). You must
contact Alpha Micro to obtain the PIC code, which is based on the SSD chip in your
computer’s main logic board. Type in your PIC. The program will prompt you as to
whether you have entered the correct PIC code, once you confirm the PIC is correct
press
RETURN
.
When you reboot the computer, it will come up in multi-user mode.
12.3Verify Your TEST.INI File
You are now ready to bring up your TEST.INI file, which you have modified for your
system configuration. To verify the TEST.INI file, enter the following commands:
LOG OPR:
RETURN
MONTST AMOS32,TEST.INI
RETURN
Watch your display screen as the TEST.INI file is processed. Make sure no errors
occur. If for some reason the computer hangs during the boot process, press the reset
button and allow the computer to boot from your AMOS32.INI file. After the computer
boots, use AlphaVUE and correct the problem that prevented the TEST.INI file from
booting properly.
Once your computer boots successfully from the TEST.INI file, make sure your
computer is fully functional. Do a complete check of your computer’s hardware—e.g.,
printers, magnetic tape drives, network hardware (if applicable), etc.
After you are completely satisfied all your equipment is working perfectly, perform these
commands:
LOG SYS:
RETURN
COPY AMOS32.INI=TEST.INI
RETURN
With all your equipment working properly, replace your computer’s top cover and the
installation is complete. We strongly recommend that you take the time to create a new
warm boot tape compatible with your AM-137 hardware configuration. The process of
making a warm boot tape is described in the next section.
If you’re using AMOS 2.2C, you will want to read the information in Appendix C, which
describes how to enable the high performance character output feature Super I/O.
