Just wanted to mention that Raptor Engineering now has an automated test stand for the ASUS KFSN4-DRE board, run nightly with automatic bricking recovery. It has two Opteron 2431 (AMD Family 10h, 6 core @ 2.4GHz)CPUs and 6GB of DDR2-667 memory installed on Node 0.
Each successful test result is recorded to the board-status repository, and each failure is reported to this list.
Hi Timothy,
can you please write down (wiki?) how your system is setted up? How do you do automatic bricking recovery?
Best, lynxis
Bricking recovery uses the fallback mechanism. There is a supervisory board attached to the target; it controls physical power on/power off/CMOS reset and also sends build/flash/test commands to the target as needed.
The exact code/details for the controller are not public at this time, though I would be happy to provide additional information on the target and/or entertain target hardware configuration requests (add on cards, etc.)
