AIX Boots straight to service mode
Hi,
I installed AIX 5.2 on a P5 9110-51A (powerpc).
The installation was successful, however, after each reboot it goes to service mode.
If I enter SMS menu, select boot device and select "normal mode" everything is ok, the system boots. But if I issue a reboot, it goes back to diagnostics mode.
Is there any way to make the "normal boot" permanent?
I tried bosboot -a -M norm, no effect. I also emptied the bootlist for service mode, no effect.
Any hints?
Thanks.
