I just reassembled an IBM RT 6151 Model 15 from extraneous parts
I had around here but it won't boot.  It powers up goes through
posts 01, 05, 03 and gets stuck on 07.  The service manual says
"replace the system board".  Unfortunately, its the only system
board I have.  Its not the end of the world if I don't get this
system working but I do wonder if there is some sort of
corrective action I can take here to get the machine to run.
I've got spares of almost every board with the exception of
another system board or power supply.

Any ideas?
