@Rebecca Cran I just assumed it didnt work, noticed it in service config, but there is no way of selecting interface or setting network port to it.

Hi David and Willy, Thanks for your help! @David, If those screws had been tighten properly, maybe you can try to use the old one for your system. M386AAG40AM3-CWE Please pay att...
@Willy Tarreau and @Anson Thank you both for all the input and help!As it seems, the CPU hasnt been mounted correctly on my rigg. As Im missing a correct torque tool - I did some tickling of ...
Yeah that definitely sounds weird. But if you find other (read *different*) DIMMs that produce the exact same totally strange behavior, you could likely conclude that the DIMMs are not at fault and...
@Willy Tarreau Well, connecting them seperately on MC[0] or MC[1] works absolutely fine.Sounds very weird, that none will work on MC[2|4|5|7] because of a spec problem.. A spec problem for a DIMM l...
FWIW we bought 6 Corsair 16GB ECC DDR4-3200MT/s DIIMMs for our Altra and they didn't work (I don't remember the message nor the exact model). We had to pick some DIMMs from other servers to get som...
@Anson Hello and thank you plenty Anson!I have started the hunt for a tool that can assist me with checking the torque of the screws. I proceed to the other steps until I have such tools in my hand...
Hi Jacob, The chances of 5 out of 6 DIMMs being bad are too low. So I hope you can help me do the following things. First, use a torque screwdriver to tighten the CPU screw cover in the order 1-...
@Anson Ruan Hi!Thanks for the information!Latest update.I got 6 new fresh RAM-sticks. All of the recommended type and model from the AVL.The system now boots, but it fails to use all six of the ins...
Unfortunately, the Ampere Altra development platform doesn't offer memory choices, but our Ampere Altra Devkit which is shipped without memory, provides the flexibility for your setup. For more de...
I'd like to order a developer platform, but I'd like 32gb DIMMs. Can I order it that way, or do I need to order with minimal memory and then toss the regular 16gb DIMMs?
Dear @Real Ouellet, The patches that we created and have are based on NXP GitHub Kernel. It can be found here[patches]. This patch is based on kernel 5.10.x version. You can take these patches and ...
@Alex Wang Any update about the testing?
I want to do this:* Download most up-to-date 5.10.xxx LTS (or 6.x LTS) mainline kernel from kernel.org (currently 5.10.206, 6.6) * Download a set of ".patch" files from Adlink (Github) * Apply pa...
Hi David, If the screwdriver torque is not right, the system may not be able to boot up or lose memory...For example, install 16GB x6 RAM, but you can only get 16GB or 32GB or 64GB.Because the C...
@Anson Ruan Thanks for the clarification!I found a supplier that is able to send me new sticks on short notice, So will probably/hopefully recieve six new sticks of the confirmed 64gb modules today...
Hi David, I took a phto to explaine the location of those 9 screws: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1guZ8ATf-eafK5JAGq1PGR5zyUc10a5Qv/view?usp=drive_link Let me check your purchase record...
I have now tested to move one stick around.Still getting the same error. ERROR: MC[X]: 00f100b4 where X is changing to the current slot of the DIMM.I assume I might of been in bad luc...
