"Requesting Internet Address for 0:14:4f:4d:61:7d"
When I run boot - s everything looks good for POST and bootup, but the system will not bail out of a "Requesting Internet Address for 0:14:4f:4d:61:7d". It keeps repeating theis same request over and over again and once in a while I get "SC Alert: Failed to send email alert for recent event." What to do? Anybody know?

if you're trying to go into single user mode, you need to run "boot -s" ... no space between the '-' and the 's' ... if multi-user mode is what you want, just type in 'boot' ... otherwise, the system doesn't know where you are trying to boot from so it tries to boot off the network ... the address request is so it could find a boot image somewhere that has been setup beforehand ... and if that does not exist, you'll be stuck in a forever loop like what you have seen ... good luck! |

you might also give it a try with boot -ar and go with the defaults
