You don't say whether the system already has an operating system installed or not.
You don't say whether your putty is connected to the systems serial console port.
Please give more information.
Meantime, an extract from the user guide says:-
1.Is the monitor cable attached to the graphics accelerator?
2.Does the monitor work when connected to another system?
3.If you have another monitor, does it work when connected to the original system?
4.Verify that OpenBoot™ PROM defaults are set properly:
•Press and hold the Power button for 4 seconds to power off the system.
•Wait 4 seconds and power on the system.
•As soon as the Power button blinks, quickly press the Power button twice. The ok prompt is displayed and the system enters a safe NVRAM mode.
•Verify these OpenBoot PROM parameters: output-device is set to screen and input-device is set to keyboard.
•If the ok prompt does not display, or if changing the output-device setting does not help, contact a Sun Service Support Center.

I am a beginner with shell script and AWK. I use PUTTY to write shell script.
Can I create new AWK script using vi command? I tried sample.awk. But everytime I open this file, the file does not retain anything I typed in.
Also, once AWK program is written, how do I execute it?
