    Hi,
    SunFire v120
    I am having a problem with using the LOM console. When I apply power to the
    system the LOM gives the first output of what is doing, booting etc PSU, TEMP
    etc... and then any subsiquent output is in strange ASCII code. I can not see
    the lom> prompt. Ican't issue commands to the console. When I boot the
    machine, all boot msgs are outputed as werid ASCII code, and console line is
    unuseable. I can telnet to the box etc and everyhting else seems fine. I just
    need to be able to console to re-format one of them.

    Thanks in advance,

    Tim McLaurin
