- I mistakenly set NetMgr...Local...Broadcast address to the IP
- address for my machine. (It's not on a NetInfo network, just connected
- to the campus Ethernet).
-
- Now, the boot process gets to a point where it's saying
- "netinfo timeout, sleeping" (shortly after "starting rpc and net
- services") and then hangs.
-
- How can I reset NetMgr...Local...Broadcast Address to
- "default" (assuming that's what I should do at this point)?
-
- Thank you in advance...
-
- Michael.
