[evla-sw-discuss] Evla-ngas-1

[James Robnett]

    Well that went badly.  The cpu that was complaining
of over temps had pretty much welded to the heat sync.

    In the process of getting it off it appears that part
of the cpu socket was damaged.  Swapping in the 2nd cpu
into the first slot results in it posting the BIOS but
then hanging in the boot sequence.

    I'm on the phone to the vendor trying to get a
motherboard and CPU over nighted.

    Currently evlangas-1 is down.
