Whenever I bring up an IMX I follow the procedure listed below. This procedure uses the program floppy disks loaded in order starting with 1 of 14, then 1 of 4, etc.
CPU sense on C, power up CPU0, look for the rotating LCD. Brings CPU up off line.
CPU sense on 1, load disk 1 of 14, rotating LCD means it is done. Formats CF and builds folders.
CPU sense on 3, load disk 2 and ALL remaining disks with the customer disk last. Copies files.
Shut down CPU. Repeat with CPU1.
Power up CPU 0 with sense on 1, then CPU 1 with sense on 1.
After they are up, CPU 0 ACT, CPU 1 on STB, change both sense to 2.
