SUN Enterprise 2 UltraSparc - NVRAM shot, not booting
Powered up the freebee SUN Enterprise 2 UltraSparc.

Invalid contents of IDPROM and date is 1968.. bad NVRAM I suspect.

But, still should be able to boot (if the drive is OK and there is an OS I suppose).

Code:
Sun Ultra 2 UPA/SBus (2 X UltraSPARC-II 296MHz), No Keyboard
OpenBoot 3.19, 1280 MB memory installed, Serial #16777215.
Ethernet address ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, Host ID: ffffffff.


The IDPROM contents are invalid

Boot device: net  File and args:
Internal loopback test -- Did not receive expected loopback packet.
Evaluating: boot

Can't open boot device

{0} ok boot disk
Boot device: /sbus/SUNW,fas@e,8800000/sd@0,0  File and args:

Can't open boot device

{0} ok

Disk in the left slot (looking at the side straight on).

I have set-defaults (still no boot)

It's been many many years since I messed with SUN, so looking for pointers.

Hey Ho Pip And Dandy!!!!!
