NAME
393dl - download MVME393 and MVME395 graphics
controllers
SYNOPSIS
393dl [-f file] board-id
393dl [-f file] all
DESCRIPTION
393dl is a GSE system administration utility designed
to support the X server executing on the MVME393 or
MVME395 graphics controller boards. Each board
contains two processors: a Motorola MC68000 or MC68020
and a Texas Instruments TI34010. These processors are
designated as the local processor and graphics
processor respectively. 393dl performs board
initialization and then downloads executable code to
each of these processors. The processors are then
started.
OPTIONS
-f
By default, the system configuration file
/etc/X.config is used. However, this may be
overridden by the -f filename option, where filename
is the full pathname of a configuration file to be
used.
board-id
Downloads one specific board, defined by board-id.
board-id should correspond to a label in the BOARD
SECTION of X.config(4). Any errors are reported on
the stderr stream.
all
Downloads all configured boards. Downloading is done
in parallel, and a report is printed for each board
being downloaded. The completion status (OK or ERR)
is included in the report. The user is also notified
when all downloading is complete.
The configuration file BOARD SECTION and TIMING SECTION
are used to determine (a) the name of the local
processor executable, (b) the name of the graphics
processor executable, (c) the load device, and (d) the
appropriate timing parameters.

board containing a currently executing X server, will
be misreported as No such device or address.
