- something has happened and all of a sudden all of our Sparc's
- will not boot (most of them have been powered off for the summer) and
- they have just been turned back on. They get their IP number when
- booting then right after that they keep saying
-
- No bootparam server responding; trying again
- No bootparam server responding; trying again
- No bootparam server responding; trying again
-
-
- they are trying to but off of the server running sunos 4.1.1
-
- has anyone seen this before and offer ANY adivce? we have replaced
- the /etc directory with one from before when the machines would boot
- thinking it might have been a problem with something in that
- directory...but that didn't solve the problem
-
- please email any advice to pac@rucs.faculty.cs.runet.edu
-
- and...THANKS!
