Please type at the OF prompt (thanks to Senex for the hint):

Code:

and list your peg model, board version, cpu board version, smartfirmware version number and date in this thread in this format:

Pegasos II/G4, Board: 1.2, CPU board 1.2, SF: 1.2 (20040810)

Please add the mention "upgraded" or "downgraded" if you changed your Smart Firmware.

I will submit these to Geoffrey Charra to add this information to the "Pegasos Book".

Thank you.

Please note: There are (at least) two slightly different variants of
Pegasos 2 machines, that need slightly different OFs to work. I think
people should know this because it's no use asking for a "new" OF
where the main (only?) changes are to make it compatible with the
on-board components.

OK, I have added the Pegasos board revision (and cpu card aswell).
The aim will be to document the different versions and what works with what.

Pegasos II/G4

Hint for others: type at the OF prompt:

cd openprom
.properties

...saves opening the case.

Pegasos II/G4, Board: 1.2, CPU board: 1.2, SF: 1.2 (20050602)

What's the point of listing these?

I've got a peg one
where do i type those commands?

typing them in a shell gets a no device found kind of repsonse.

The point is to list all the OF versions, all the board revisions and ask gently Bplan what changed between them.
We may also learn that certain OF versions are matched with certain Hardware rev and know if depending on what OF version we have if an OF update to a newer version would make sense or not.

If all this information is publically documented somewhere please advise.

The commands are not to type in a DOS shell but at the Open Firmware prompt. If your Peg is set to autoboot you can press ESC when booting to reach the OF prompt.
It looks that on (some ?) Peg1 the OF commands listed by Senex does not work. Peg1 owners please try to read the OF version if displayed at boot time (it may depends as some gfx card may not display it) and report the version here. For mainboard and CPU board rev you can always check it on the boards.

[ Edited by cdfr on 2006/4/2 8:55 ]

Peg1 owners need to add a " / " :

cd /openprom

hey, thanks guys! I'm writing down everything it says because I really don't know what it all means
I'll leave it to you to understand....

Here goes the first 1.1 CPU module !

Could you please post a picture of it ?

I'll post some pictures tomorrow, front and back.

Hi,

I have the following 6 Pegasos's (they are all the same):

SF: 1.2 (20040810112413)
Pegasos 2, 1.2
realtive-addressing: 0x131CC6A (20040810)

upgraded

Regards

Christoph

Sometimes the OF revision release number and date is
overwritten at OF prompt page by the OEM-Banner set by
the reseller, to disable the OEM-banner it should be enough
to type at prompt:

setenv oem-banner false

and reboot...

SmartFirmware Version "1.2" (20051216161829)
model "Pegasos2,1.2"
built-on "0x131F510 (20051216)

upgraded due some gfx Probs with my Radeon 9000 which where solved with the newer Firmware.

[ Edited by Bladerunner on 2006/4/3 13:27 ]

Thanks toto and Bladerunner. Any other firmware around (Anyone with a pre-april or an april 1 firmware) ?

If someone please can post similar pictures for CPU Board 1.0 and 1.2 then we can spot the differences :)
I have a 1.2 CPU board but I am currently away from it. I may post a picture later if nobody does it.
