- I am trying to upgrade an Indigo Elan from R3000 to R4000 and have run
- into a bit of a problem: when I try to boot the machine (with R4000)
- installed, I get the following error message:
-
- Cannot load scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(8)/sash
- Unable to load bootfile: not enough space
-
- Also, if I try running diagnostics from the PROM monitor, I get:
-
- Cannot load scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(8)ide
- Error 16 while loading scsi(0)disk(1)rdisk(0)partition(8)ide
-
- I have no problem booting the machine from CD (which I did to upgrade
- to 4.0.5F). Also, if I replace the old R3000 board, the machine boots
- fine as well.
-
- Any suggestions?
