Host minerva.mit.edu in 13-5051 is failing to boot, and crashing to the
boot prom with the following errors.
Unable to start xlogin, doing console login instead.
missing or bad passwd entry for <root>
INIT: Command is respawning too rapidly. Check for possible errors.
id: co "etc/athena/dm /etc/athena/login/config ttyp0 console "
minerva.mit.edu is a Sun Ultra5 (the only one in the room)
13-5051 is an open-door department cluster, no passcode or key is needed.
Thanks,
Coleman Greene
