Hello hotline,
m66-080-10, a Sparc 5, is not booting up. At first it was giving timeout
waiting for ARP/RARP packets, so I tried tightening the network cables.
This I tried several times, and one time I tried booting, nothing happened.
I tried stopping and booting into single user mode, nothing happened. I
can't really get beyond this point now, so I thought I'd report it to you
guys so it can be fixed. (I did not cause this, I came down because a friend
said that several of the machines crashed. 3, actually. One Sun came back
up fine, the SGI is still booting. Its number is m66-080-16, it has seemingly
stopped its boot sequence after running the AFS daemons and saying setgid/
setuid stuff can only be made in the following cells:

rel-eng.athena.mit.edu
dev.mit.edu
[cursor just sits here]
It might need looking into, I am not sure. (For the SGI, when I walked in,
it was off, so I turned it on and pressing return after dev.mit.edu does
nothing.)
Thank you,
Joanna Yun
