If you can telnet to the machine not everything is lost.
Maybe it is just a matter of redirecting the system console. First determine which device name your GXT250 adapter has, usually it should be lft0.
# lscfg
Then try to log on to the machine and redirect the system console terminal to that device:
# swcons -c /dev/lft0
See "man swcons" for mor information about this command. If this doesn't solve the problem please check back here.
