I have a Personal Iris and I have the following problem.
I have nsf running and I usually hard mount some disks
wich belong to other servers. I have installed the 3.1C
upgrade (it was 3.1B before) and something got changed
in such a way that the Iris is unable to communicate
with the servers. Since it is trying to hard mount the
disk, the Iris gets stuck while rebooting and I cannot
modify the relevant files.
Is there a way to reboot the machine in a standalone
form, without starting the nfs daemons? Is there a
solution to my problem. For example, on a Sun3 there
is an option that allows to bring the system up in
"single user mode". I have not been able to figure
out how to do it on the Personal Iris.
I will be very gratefull to anyone who can help me.
