I found these two old reports below that are almost the same that might help?.

Problem
MC32S card fails to boot into service

Answer
Background:
NORTEL is investigating reports from the field on the NTDW65/MC32S card that fails to boot into service when first installed into the system. The output from the face plate LED Display of the NTDW65/MC32S Card reports:
> Self Test
> Load
> UNREG (LED display would stay at UNREG)

The Output from the Face plate connector will show
> Self test Passed
> Auto Booting

At this point the card would not progress through the remainder of the boot cycle and appears to freeze
Additionally the output from the Media Card L-adapter from the NTDW65/MC32S reports:
This is the MC32S Gold Image. The vxWorks Image on /p/mainos.sys failed to load
The system has not been installed or there is a problem with the compact flash
Please use setLeader command to enter networking parameters.
Then Install system software using Element Manager or TM
IPL-5.00.31 Wednesday May 23 2007 21:38:13 EDT

Analysis:
During a new installation of this card it has been found that a number of the cards were incorrectly set to be a leader in the factory. This causes the card to not issue a boot P sequence command.

Recommendations:
If a site experiences a failure oif the NTDW65/MC32S as described they should reset the card to follower by using the mc32ssetup command

Required Actions:
Connect to the 9-way serial port on the ethernet adapter (not to the faceplate connector)

The above changes require reboot to take effect.
Do you want to reboot now? (y/n/[a]bort) : y


If after correcting the boot P sequence you receive this message:

Card will upgrade and then manually reboot the card

Problem
The NTDW65 - MC32S card fails to boot into service

Answer
See Nortel BULLETIN ID: 2007008546, Rev 3
Card incorrectly set up as a Leader in the Nortel Factory.
Nortel say use 'mc32ssetup' command to reset card to follower.

See Nortel BULLETIN ID: 2007008546, Rev 3
Card incorrectly set up as a Leader in the Nortel Factory. So on Boot up the card doesn't use the BOOTP application. Card properties aren't got from the IP Node configuration.
Nortel say use 'mc32ssetup' command to reset card to follower.
