Differences Between EPC-5 and EPC-5A
The EPC-5A differs from the EPC-5 in the following ways:
1. The System BIOS is based on Phoenix Technologies NuBIOS revision
4.05. The EPC-5 uses an Award BIOS.
2. The EXP-MS SCSI module is not supported.
3. BIOS setup configuration is available only during the boot sequence, it
is not available after the OS boots. The CTRL-ALT-ESC key sequence
no longer invokes setup.
4. The EPC-5A supports CMOS Save and Restore (CSR) that allows
backup and restoration of the contents of CMOS RAM to and from the
Flash Boot Device (FBD).
5. Flash File System (FFS) support for flash EXMs is based on Phoenix
Technologies PicoFlash and includes read/write capability. The Xformat
based FFS is no longer supported for flash. It is still used for SRAM and
VME boot image creation.Use the Pformat utility that ships with this
product.
