Got some text scroll through faintly before freezing again

Hi DukeNuke2,

The OS is in single-user mode prompt. How & where to check the graphical redirection from the ELOM web gui. Any documentation/command to try out?

There was a brief moment where it was possible to see the hardware initialization together with boot up from Solaris 10 x86 DVD lines after powercycle before returning to freezing the whole screen again. It almost appears as though I need to set terminal emulation on Putty to run in possibly vt100/ANSI.

Note that this server in single-user mode boot up from Solaris 10 x86 bootup DVD disk, has not been configured with a network connection. Hence, a Putty SSH brings me to ELOM prompt. On the other hand, I can SSH to the console on an identical system in multi-user mode on the network. Not sure whether this difference may have anything to do with the current issue.

Thanks a lot again,

George
