Preparing to Install the Board in a Sun PCI Workstation

This section explains how to unpack and install the Md5/PCX
board in a Sun PCI workstation.
If you do not properly install the board, you may be unable to
boot your computer. Refer to "Disabling Parity on a Sun Ultra
System" on page 73.

Unpacking the board

Remove the Md5/PCX board slowly from its package and pro-
tective sleeve, being careful to shield against static discharge to
the board.
Static electricity can damage the board. When you install the
board, wear an antistatic wrist strap or touch one hand to a bare
metal surface on the power supply to discharge static electricity.
During any installation step that involves touching the board or
parts of the motherboard, keep one hand touching the metal
surface to provide grounding. If you can't perform a step with
one hand, return one hand occasionally to the bare metal surface.
