HDD0 3. move all others below these, and disable with shift+1 NOTE: USB drives are disabled except for troubleshooting. Some accessories in the the grid are USB bootable and will screw up imaging. NOTE: Let the BIOS reboot till the node boots up properly [[br]] ======= Troubleshooting ======= * Step 1 is to reset bios to default settings and reset options as above. * If this fails, remove power from the motherboard, move the cmos jumper to position 2, wait at least 30 seconds, and then move it back. Then reset bios options as above. * Jumper: JRTC * Type: Onboard 3-pin jumper || JRTC || Mode || || 1-2 || Clear CMOS || || 2-3 || Normal Operation || || Default setting: || 2-3 || [[Image(jrtc.png)]] * If bios is corrupted, reflash according to directions at [http://www.commell.com.tw/Support/Product%20Technical%20Support/LV-67K.htm] * When flashing bios, be sure to use -savemac option. * If mac is lost, MACtool below can be used. urls used [http://www.asrock.com/support/Download/MacTool.asp] [http://www.paoloiannelli.com/tag/flashdisable/] STUB For use as console: Making Switch: 1. Take switch from bin 2. Cut 4 wires, 24awg, 2 black, 1 blue, 1 red 3. Strip ends of wires, short on 1 side, about 1cm on other 4. crimp short molex pins onto ends 5. solder other ends to switch. 1. Blue to terminal by mark (led positive) 2. Black opposite it. 3. Other two terminals get red and black, orientation doesn't matter. (switch) 6. cut heat shrink to length, slide over wires down to terminal 7. shrink 8. twist wire pairs to keep separate 9. plug pins into molex terminals. 1. red/black to 2 pin 2. blue/black to ends of 3 pin ====== BIOS Settings (bios version 1.1J): ====== * Main * Boot Features (get right name) 1. Quick Boot (ON) 2. Console Redirection (ON) * Terminal Type (ANSI) 3. UEFI Boot (OFF) * Advanced 1. Processor Configuration 1. Intel (R) HT Technology (ON) 2.

Hdd0 ====== Flashing BIOS ====== backup first from readme: Flash Method: 1. Please make a boot-able Disk which could booting into DOS environment. 2. Un-zip attached files and copy it into boot-able Disk. 3. Power on the system and flash the BIOS under the DOS environment. 1. First, Backup the current BIOS FPT -D nodeXX-XX-bak.bin 2. The instruction will be "C:/fpt -savemac -f 67J12.BIN" 4. Please turn off the system and clean CMOS by Jumper. 5. Turn on the system and update BIOS successful.
