Which prompt(s) can't you get to? The sc> or the root prompt (#) or both?
Yes, I would normally remove an error code from the alom asr-db (automatic system recovery database) to clear down any errors reported.
To do that you need access to be alom sc> prompt.

On a Sun keyboard you would normally press STOP-A to interrupt the boot sequence and drop you to the alom prompt.

pam_get_user
PAM_GET_USER(3) BSD Library Functions Manual PAM_GET_USER(3)
NAME
pam_get_user -- retrieve user name
LIBRARY
Pluggable Authentication Module Library (libpam, -lpam)
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <security/pam_appl.h>
int
pam_get_user(pam_handle_t *pamh, const char **user, const char *prompt);
DESCRIPTION
The pam_get_user() function returns the name of the target user, as specified to pam_start(3). If no user was specified, nor set using
pam_set_item(3), pam_get_user() will prompt for a user name. Either way, a pointer to the user name is stored in the location pointed to by
the user argument, and the corresponding PAM item is updated.
The prompt argument specifies a prompt to use if no user name is cached. If it is NULL, the PAM_USER_PROMPT item will be used. If that item
is also NULL, a hardcoded default prompt will be used. Additionally, when pam_get_user() is called from a service module, the prompt may be
affected by module options as described below. The prompt is then expanded using openpam_subst(3) before it is passed to the conversation
function.
MODULE OPTIONS
When called by a service module, pam_get_user() will recognize the following module options:
user_prompt Prompt to use when asking for the user name. This option overrides both the prompt argument and the PAM_USER_PROMPT
item.
RETURN VALUES
The pam_get_user() function returns one of the following values:
[PAM_BUF_ERR] Memory buffer error.
[PAM_CONV_ERR] Conversation failure.
[PAM_SYSTEM_ERR] System error.
