- Hello All,
-
- I goofed really big. I have a 9000/755 and have accidentally did
- the following:
-
- In Boot Admin on the EEPROM I typed:
-
- PATH console rs232.a
-
- And I cannot get anyhting ona ANSI terminal hooked to rs232 a port. And
- now I cannot figure how to reset the console path to graphics_1.
-
- Any body have the answer?!? (God let there be someone)
-
- I basically cannot boot or use the system (Not on a network)
-
- Also, if someone answers the above, can you boot HP-UX 9.0 in a single user
- mode and not have init run the setups in /etc/inittab?
-
- The system has Instant Ignition and tries to run HP-Vue, but HP vue is
- corrupt and wont start so the system just hangs there. I need to get the
- init run default to level 2 (text) so I can fix HP-VUE...
-
- Email direct to jeff@wsm.com please... (I need the answer as soon as possible!)
