PROBLEM: (QAR 71763) (Patch ID: OSF440-108) ******** This problem is seen only on the AlphaVME 5/480a systems. Incorrect addressing of the l2 space of the VB Backplane driver node leads to corruption of multicast node information and failure to communicate with other nodes in the backplane. Network operations like ping, rlogin, ftp, etc will not work when there are multiple AlphaVME 5/480a systems in the VME backplane running Vxworks and/or Tru64 UNIX. This problem will be seen when there are 2 or more systems in the VME Backplane and one or more might be running the VxWorks operating system. Intercommunication between the systems does not work. When all the AlphaVME 5/480a systems in the backplane are running Tru64 UNIX, intercommunication worked but multicast information for each node is over-written and because of this data corruption, this fix is needed. PROBLEM: (QAR 71777) (Patch ID: OSF440-108) ******** ALPHAVME320 platforms do not support the floppy device currently. When floppy is configured in the firmware at irq 6, the current platform code does not support it and hence the following error is printed out during boot session: EBV16, invalid isa0 irq6 This patch fixes the problem.
