NOVRAM

The NOVRAM program is used to modify and display the NOn-Volatile RAMs
located on each R1000 processor board.  The NOVRAM program is used during
the boot process to insure that the NOVRAMs contain valid information.
The NOVRAM program may also be invoked by typing:

    CLI> x novram

The program will load the contents of all boards' NOVRAMs and then
display a menu.  The current menu options are:

    0 => exit
    1 => modify
    2 => display

The exit option causes the program to terminate.  The modify option
allows the user to modify the NOVRAM of a given board.  Default
answers are provided to all questions during the modification process.
The default values are either the current values if the NOVRAMs
checksum is correct, or best guess values if the boards NOVRAM does
not checksum successfully.  The display option provides a table of
information about each board in the R1000 processor.  Included are
the board part number, serial number, artwork revision level, eco
level, and manufacturing date.
