SunPCi II Test (sunpci2test)

The sunpci2test tests the SunPCi trademark II card, which is a PC processor embedded in an add-on card. This test consists of approximately 150 POST routines that perform diagnostic, hardware detection, and initialization functions. This test issues a reset, then launches POST in the SunPCi II BIOS to check the devices. Finally, the sunpci2test runs bridge and system diagnostics tests.
