RE: boot trouble



Hi,

Yep, looks like you may have a corrupted NVRAM/PROM on the machine and so
OpenBoot isn't working - it may be worth seeking advice from someone that
knows more about SPARC's etc. but it sounds like a new PROM is needed for
the machine - it is possible to re-flash the PROM from the OpenBoot command
line, but it needs to boot from cdrom, which it's sounding like yours won't
do :(

i do:
printenv
-> data access exception
set-defaults
-> data access exception
go
-> data access exception
test cdrom
-> data access exception
test disk
-> data access exception
test-all
-> data access exception

the only command that do something is:
probe-scsi-all
->
/iommu@f,e00000/sbus@f,e0001000/espdma@f,400000/esp@f,800000
Target 1
Unit 0  Disk IBM .....
Target 3
Unit 0  Disk QUANTUM .....
Target 6
Unit 0  Removable Read only device TOSHIBA....
