Sounds like exactly the problem I had with a RB230. Completely trashed the boot - no beeps, nothing on the console. Even a netinstall didn’t work - it downloaded the files and then just hung. The only way I could resolve it was to take the CF out and do a NetInstall directly to that. Then I had to contact MT and arrange for a new licence since the softID had changed. Having spent a good three hours trying to solve it, I came to the opinion that I was lucky the RB230 boots from CF and that I could remove it. Had it been, say, a RB750, it would have been completely bricked.
I have just tested that with v5 b 3 the Drivers page is .. a window to another dimension an alien dimension so it can’t be seen. So the ordinary peasent will see it as a funky distortion of the screen. Only those with blue blood will se the aliens waving at him
