good day,
i've tried the command u mentioned today. this time, the boot sequence is a bit different from the previous ones, but the outcome was still the same. i was shown the number of files in my harddisk, how many are used, frags, blocks, and % of fragmentation then
INIT : SINGLE USER MODE.
type control-d to proceed normal,
(or give root password for system maintenance)
INIT : New run lvel 3
i gave control-d because i do not know the password.
another thing here, i got another sun microsystem computer. however, this one doesn't have a cd-rom nor floppy. i opened the casing, and found out that there's a 2GB IBM SCSI harddisk inside. at the front of the casing, it was written SPARC station 20. when i tried to boot this up (without any network connection), the screen was blank all the while nothing appeared. the exterior of this looks exactly like the one here at
http://g-lenerz.de/sun-007.html however, the harddisk and the layout is slightly different.
as for the one with the problematic boot-up. it is a Sun microsystem Ultra creator 2 3D with a cd-rom and a floppy drive which look exactly like
