We had an unexpected power glitch today which took down our Varian/Chemagnetics Infinity host Sun Blade100. I cannot get the host to boot at all. When it first came up, it stated that the filesystem was bad, which I expected, so I ran fsck -y twice. Now when I boot, it hangs up with the message "Cannot open '/etc/path_to_inst'" and gives the choices of 'boot', 'go', or 'login'. The only choice that gets anywhere is 'login', which puts you into single-user mode after entering the firmware password. I'm stuck there. Any advice is appreciated.
Cheers, -Hirsch
