OK, I had the PDP-11/23+ board in place, and the system loaded up. I was
testing out the memory boards I've got by swapping them in. It didn't seem
to like a pair of clearpoint memory boards I've got, and then I put in the
M8637-EC board, and NOTHING works. It won't even come up with the info on
the /23+ ROM. I've a very bad feeling about having put ECC RAM in it.
I went so far as to pull out all the boards, nothing. I swapped the /23+
with a /73 and still nothing! What on earth did I do? The diagnostic LEDs
on the /23+ are D1, D2, and D4 unfortunatly the manual I've got on the
board doesn't seem to explain what the LEDs mean.
It's as if I managed to fry the backplane, but that really doesn't make sense.
