  1. My unit (DS2) have 2 serial ports near the AC cable, I used the serial N.1 with a standard 9 pins serial cable.
  2. sorry I'm end user and I own only a DS2 but's supposed to be the same if you have the serial on the rear side of your machine the only difference beetween enter prompt in 'bootloader' or as 'disk error' is like below: C:\> (bootloader) ?:\> (disk error) but you can operate many functions also with a disk 'not bootloaded' (fat format error) like change ip address, format C and/or D drive, 'load' a bootloader... just type 'help' after 'up towngirl' (become admin) to experiment the commands list
  3. Connect the Serial cable from your PC to Serial port 1 on the DS2, and use 'Hyperterminal' with the following settings: 19200-8-N-1 in the Hyperterminal window, tap ESC ESC ESC to get the ?:\ prompt Type 'up towngirl' Type 'help' for command list, here you should change ip address as you wish with the network config command... enjoy
  4. Following your instructions I yet installed 2 x 500Gb Seagate 7200.10 in my DS2 16 ch (originally was 1 x 80Gb). As the master drive work perfectly in place, the slave drive not allow the system to start as you described here! Did you worked around and found a system how to 'reset' bios and unlock the slave drive? I will try some experiments trhu serial connection with severals command available after the 'up towngirl' command...
