So, feeling pretty slow here but figured I'd ask for thoughts.
Just recently got a X10SLM based system off eBay and went to start it up. While the IPMI port is hitting activity, IPMI is not pulling a DHCP address from anything I can see (assuming there's a static set), VGA does not produce anything (VGA jumper is enabled, but assuming it may have been configured or is default in bios), and I'm kind of stuck.
I've tried clearing CMOS to reset the bios with no luck, and gone as far as wiresharking the IPMI port to see if I could catch anything, but I'm not seeing anything obvious and I am relatively amateur with packet captures. Alternatively, not getting any post beeps at all, so maybe this is a separate issue - also don't have a console cable offhand to try that. Thoughts to help someone being a little slow today?
