Hi, [sorry for replying to my own post - deleted most of it...] >Is that a known hardware bug symptom? Should I take out some RAM? Retry on >serial console? Giving up is not an option ;-)
Something more: I removed a PCI card and rebooted - made no difference. Also, it's a *bad* idea to set the "console" PROM variable to s1 (d is the preferred setting for forcing serial console...). But there's a way out: the jumper which overrules the PROM password sets the "console" variable to "g".
