Hello lovely Irix people. I was a user if Irix 25+ years ago, working in VFX. I have an o2 which I dug out of the loft. It is to be used in a youtube video showing of some software that I haven't seen any video of. Anyways.... 

I was so close. 
I managed to get irix booting and all the software all working fine. I wanted to change the network settings in order to get some footage on the machine. I changed two things
1. network IP address (to one that would work on my local network)
2. I changed the exportfs file. I commented out a line as it seemed to point to an empty folder
On rebooting to take the new IP I get:

Is my hard drive dead? Or did I break something.   Thanks in advance
