Hi Vext01,
The battery may not be the issue - although I'm sure that it's not helping in any way. From memory there was a SUN document published (Probably about 10 Years ago) that mentioned issues with the ALOM when the battery was discharged. It shouldn't have made any difference as the settings were all stored in NVRAM, but the flat battery could cause unpredictable behaviour (or something like that ).
I'd like to give this some more attention, but I'm preparing loads of stuff or auctioning things for a sequence of "Disaster Rehearsals" - so can only be here and active when the Auditors and Business Users are off patting themselves on the back!
Regards
Gull04

My question is, what all do I have to change to get the V440 to boot off of this with very little complications. Right now, it... (21 Replies)

In saying that, I have... (12 Replies)

Its been like this for a few weeks now... (5 Replies)
