Observing the Power-On Self Test

When the FORMULA 8200 is powered on, it automatically runs a
power-on self-test (POST) to verify that all components are
functioning normally.

As POST verifies the basic operation of the switch, it displays a series
of messages on the console. A similar screen display appears:

Boot POST in progress...

PROM version: 1.0.7

DRAM now configured into a contiguous block:
