- We're running VADSWorks 2.0 on Motorola MVME143 and MVME147 boards. Since the
- VADSWorks PROMS replace the stock Motorola PROMS, you lose the onboard
- power-on-diagnostics. We have a project requirement to run some level of
- board readiness tests without resorting to swapping the Motorola PROMS back
- in. I've got a call in to Motorola to see about the availability of their
- diagnostic source code, but I'm wondering how other folks have dealt with
- this problem. Has anyone developed downloadable diagnostic or readiness tests
- (or adapted Motorola's code) for this situation?
