OXO LOLA of CPUe-1

Hi all,

I seam to have a problem LOLA-ing CPUe-1 CPU's.

I set the three dip switches as requested. I start the CPU. The 4 files are getting FTP'ed into the CPU. After that it just sits there not starting to load the binaries.
Im trying to load OXORelease 4.1 and I use LOLA 300 8.1

I only have the problem with the CPUe-1. All other CPU's are fine to LOLA.

Appreaciate any comment.

M.

Not sure what it's like in the states (I'm assuming that's where you are), but here in Aus we only have to change one dip switch. Which ones do your documentation say you need to change?

From the Australian Documentation:

Hi,
I had the same problem with a rel. 2.1 CPU (Aspen though), using the same release of LOLA like you. I've used LOLA 2.0 and everything worked just fine (loading the four tickets and then immediately uploading the OS).
So my advice is that you use LOLA 2.0 (LOLA 3.0 seams to have a problem).

Hope this helps.

LoLa 2 was definately a little less buggy than LoLa 3. That being said, there are some ways around it. If you use Regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL MACHINE > Software > PCX Tools > LoLa300R8.1, you'll see the registry settings that control the account that LoLa uses to log on with. It creates it every time you start a new LoLa.

The solutions I've found to LoLa's many problems are as follows:

Set your IP to 192.168.92.245, then reboot. This helps as sometimes your route settings don't update immediately

Manually create user LoLa300R8.1 and set the password to #LoLa300R8.1 using the User Management tool in your control panel

Make sure that windows firewall (and all other firewalls) are totally disabled. They'll wreak all sorts of havoc on a LoLa

Use a network switch or hub instead of a crossover cable.

Move your downloadingitems folder (containing the system software) to a folder like c:\lola\downloadingitems. Sometimes LoLa can't access really long directory trees

If all else fails, try from a different computer or use a different network card - I use a PCMCIA network adaptor just for LoLaing, and don't have any problems.

Cheers,
asro.

Thanks guys,

none of the suggestions worked. I can Lola any of the older ( Aspen) but none of the new one with the 3 dip switches(intel).

The dip switch setting I use are the same as in AUS.

Thank you so much anyway.
