    Dear managers, need your prompt help!

    I've been getting these errors in /var/adm/messages constantly since a
    reboot a machine, a Sunfire v880 running Solaris 9 Generic_112233-12 (due to
    a power failure by the way) --

    In the logs during the reboot, the "PS2 Device unplugged" is the last error
    picld gives...could this be a cause of the problem? --

    Running prtdiag shows the following, and the "no memory" part is giving me a
    heart attack. Could this just be (from the logs above), an incomplete boot?
    I am thinking of rebooting the machine and seeing if it will be the same, or
    do you think it's something failing for sure? Many thanks in advance for
    reading. Will summarise.
