If you see a sparc4 that is flashing the screen and a console message,
it was probably misinstalled during the last day.  There was a problem
with the install server which has been corrected.

Cluster Support intends to reinstall these machines today.

Thank you for letting us know and keep your eyes open for problems
in the future!
