Hello Ralph
Here are the instructions I wrote for people here at Diamond:
4.2 Loading the Boot ROM to Flash Memory
This is necessary for new processor cards or to load a modified boot ROM.
First power down and take out the processor, change jumper J8 (situated at
the top back corner of the board) to boot from Flash 1 instead of Flash 0,
insert the processor and power up again. The following represents the
necessary input/output on the debug port; user input is shown in bold;

Subject: MVME 5500/6100: How to flash the VxWorks bootrom?
Hi all,
with those new PPC board series Motorola seems to have switched from the
good old PPCbug to something called MOTLoad.
Does anyone have a clue or - even better - instructions on how to
download and flash the VxWorks bootrom on one of these boards?
Thanks a lot,
Ralph
