• Stuck for 7 min at startup : "bmc initialization wait .." •

Dear all,

I just received my "new" Tyan S7025 (used, but as new and for good reason) in replacement of mine that burned (thanks to Intel chipset series 5500's temps). The bios of my "new" motherboard was corrupted, I managed to get it started by taking the bios chip from my old S7025 .. \ o /

However I still have a big problem: the BMC (v2.1) fails to initialize, the bios remains stuck for more than 7 min at startup on post "bmc initialization wait ..." .

Moreover, the BMC is not accessible via the bios or the LAN network, and I can't find the IPMI devices under Windows 10 or Ubuntu, I tried with IpmiUtil, IpmiCFG, Openipmi, but unsuccessful (no ipmi device found).

• My question: Is there a way to disable the BMC or reset it on the S7025? •

I spent a lot of time searching the internet and Tyan's site, there is everything you need in the S7010 manual: j7 = BMC reset / disable Jumper, and the S7020: J13 = BMC reset / disable Jumper ... but nothing in the manual of the s7025 ... I even tried jumpers not referenced: j168, jp12, j74, j75, j52, but none of them seems to be related to the BMC.

:cry: The sad thing in the story is that when I received the motherboard, the bios was corrupt, but not the BMC v1.6 (blinking green led), I updated to the 2.1 by the web interface, without errors, but after reboot, the bmc was no longer reachable (constant green led), and I replaced the bios chip after. :banghead:

I am really stuck on this problem and i already send a mail to Tyan..

Thank you in advance for any help you could bring to me.
