Operating Systems Solaris Any hope for this bootlooping Sun V210? Post 303026513 by vext01 on Wednesday 28th of November 2018 07:23:34 PM

Well, I was unable to install solaris on the other machine, as it was a "managed system", meaning that you can't boot it with the SCC card ejected. It would just shutdown if you tried to turn it on.



I used another SCC card with a known password to boot it. This confirms the password is stored on the SCC card.



The problem I'm faced with now is that I can't get a 'OK>' prompt with 'console -f', even after resetting all ALOM settings to defaults with 'setdefaults -a'.


Any ideas why this would be?
