I did # nvsetenv boot-command boot # nvsetenv boot-device /bandit/gc/53c94/[EMAIL PROTECTED]:0 # nvsetenv boot-file <nothing ..> # nvsetenv input-device ttya # nvsetenv output-device ttysa To me it looks like I lack something in the boot-file entry. I also tried the # nvsetenv boot-command "begin ['] boot catch 1000 ms cr again" from the script attached to one the emails, but the result was the same. does anyone see the light? morten --------------------------------- E-Mail: morten <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: 22-May-2001 Time: 18:38:22 Currently working hard for the LAI at INSA-lyon ----------------------------------
