CS-2 software loading

Post by mtcl »

Following a HD crash, I try to load a 10.1.1 release in a CS-2 board on a new HD, using OpmiPCX installer on a windows XP PC
I get nothing on OpmiPCX installer, so I checked the BIOS and there is no option for boot from Ethernet (the option "IBA GE Slot 0200 v126" is missing from BIOS).

Any idea ?

Thanks

Hi Mustafa

This is the console output:
Version 1.23.1109. Copyright (C) 2007 American Megatrends, Inc.
ALCATEL CS-2 BIOS VERSION 0ABPT110
Press ^B to enter setup.
Press ^I to boot EFI SHELL


and the Boot options are:
"Disabled in BBS Order"
"SATA: WDC WD5000LPCX-22VHAT1"
"Disabled"

However, as I notice on the PC, the LAN port of the CPU is active

No need to press anything, just allow it to proceed, it will come to the stage where it will try to boot from the network .
Then the PCX installer will come into play and load the OS and Call handling software.

That was my first reaction and I left the system in this state for 15 min. However, the same information (Press ^B...) keeps repeating

PC Installer version?
Show all CS output.
Disable all network adapter on PC (except Ethernet).

The version is 4.1 and there is no other adapter on PC. This is PC, used only for Alcatel software downloading. I tested on another card and it works fine
