Bus Error 1 and 2 = off

When the CF card is ejected or not installed, the System ACE “Err” LED blinks.
9. Extract the associated training lab files to your local PC.
Unzip the training lab files to a working directory, name the directory, and make note
of the directory’s name. This directory with the extracted files is referred to as
<
LAB_DIR > in this tutorial.
