You can hook up ttya port to a dumb terminal to see if anything comes out.

Or try to power up the box  while tap STOP +N ( for setting default to NVRAM
if this is dead

Subject: [Suns-at-Home] Ultra 60 problem

 

Hi all,
I recently got the itch to play with my ultra 60, so dug it out of the
closet and set it up. Trouble is, it won't complete the POST. Keyboard
lights flash and I get the good single 'beep' but no video and the power
light flashes, it does not come on solid green.

So, any ideas? I'm pretty good with the Solaris side of things but basically
a noob when it comes to SPARC hardware troubleshooting. 

The machine sat in storage for several years, is there a battery somewhere
that died? Any help is appreciated. 

Thanks!

Bill
