Added 2023-10-09 16:54:25 +0000 UTCTrying to figure out what's wrong with the SunPCi III Pro. I think I've narrowed it down to hardware issues.

2023-10-09 23:13:57 +0000 UTCI was just going back and re-watching your videos and then I saw the notification pop up for this video, perfect timing! I too just got a SunPCi iii and solaris 9 complete software box off of ebay that I'm going to get going in my v240. This video is the motivation I needed to get it going to see if my SunPCi works. Unfortunate that your cpu was fried just like you predicted in the first video when you mentioned thermal pads, especially with it being new in box! I got a used one but will definitely check that before booting. Glad the cpu is at least replaceable and isn't soldered to the board.
