Re: Problem rebooting AlphaStation 200 with SRM from RedHat 5.1?

[Alan Kennedy <apkennedy yahoo com>]

Hi,


Mine reboots fine here. There is a setting that needs to be set in the
srm console to get it to boot again. 

It has been awhile since I had to reboot so I have really forgotten,
but will look again later today.

however

at the srm console type "init" and that should clear the system out.

Later,

Alan
