Bailing out of boot on a K class

[Brian Wendrzycki]

I know there's a way to "bail out" of booting a K when it's stuck in a busy-wait, but I'll be darned if I can remember the key sequence. Control... something...

Thanks,
eileen

Hi,

should put you on the boot prompt where you can issue a number of commands (bo for boot, ...)

Hope this is what you're looking for.

Bye,
Rik.

OR


Cntrl and the Pipe sign? That translates to:
Ctrl {shift key}

[Cheryl Griffin]

Eileen,

Ctrl-B rs for reset OR
Ctrl-B tc for transfer of control

Best Wishes,
Cheryl

Control-Shift-Pipe

May also try the BREAK key on the keyboard

Eileen:

I believe that you will need to enable the ability to issue the CTRL_b by setting the key switch to SERVICE mode on a K-Server. On a D-box there is a small black slide switch on the back of the server that arms the same functionality.

The -key works for me.
