Hi guys...
today I was powering on my SGI VW540, it was off for about a year or so and was working before... but it shows me just this blue maintenance terminal rolling up some tests in a loop... I don't know how to stop, so I took a pic of it... it's passing everything without the Real-Time Clock it says:

Code:
Real-Time Clock   -- FAILED : error code 0x00000100   Date is out of valid range

Results Summary: 12 passed, 1 failed.


anybody knows how to fix it ?

You need to interrupt it during boot, and set a valid time. See the thread:
