Hi

I'm trying to boot a Bull DPX/2 and got stuck waiting for NFS to do 
something, at least that is what I believe.

Is there anyone on the list with B.O.S experience that could help me 
bring the sytem up under some kind of single user environment without 
network.

I have a OS install kit with bootable floppies and I managed to get a 
prompt using the "boot_unix" floppy and following the manuals that I 
have. 

However, not even "ls" would work from this prompt, only "cat". (You are 
supposed to enter "os_install", but I don't want to mess up the existing 
installtion.


/P
