Try booting in single user mode and remove the file /reconfigure (it may be in /a/reconfigure). This causes the devices to configure, but this may not work because your devices never configured initially. Worth a try. If it doesn't work, you can put the reconfigure file back by issuing "touch /reconfigure".
