Howdy,

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere, but I seem to have missed it.

The other day I came in and my Sun (slingshot.mit.edu, N42-240F) was 
stuck at the ok prompt rather than the Athena owl login screen.

   Rebooting with command: boot
   Boot device: disk  File and args:
   krtld: load_exec: fail to expand cpu/$CPU
   krtld: error during initial load/link phase
   panic - boot: exitto64 returned from client program
   Program terminated
   ok

Any suggestions as to get running again? -- I need to generate 
screenshots of the new release for documentation (and of course 
that's the day my machine fails...)

--Kevin
