hmmm, the only thing I can think of at this point - are you sure it's a CX3 Pro? This is the exact same behavior I got when I flashed a non-pro with pro firmware - firmware query in recovery mode would show the flash is perfectly fine and had a firmware image in it, but booting without the jumper, the code just couldn't boot the card.
or maybe if it is a cx3pro card, are you sure you're flashing the right firmware? Showing proper flash and firmware loaded but not initializing the card all points to incorrect FW to me but I could be wrong
Is that IBM-00RX859.ini ini in the zip you posted dumped from BEFORE you flashed the card? Because that definitely calls it out as
which is definitely what you're trying to flash, so I dunno. It is also IDENTICAL to the MCX312B-XCC_Ax.ini that gets used to build the official image you're flashing, so I dunno why it wouldn't work. I guess the card could be bad, it does happen
