I have a Indy and have no screen at booting , I see only the login Screen after a while. It is a security option ? or hardware issues ? Connect with SGI 19 CRT Monitor. Thank you

i will try later
thank you for fast reply ..great forum here

hmm i see i dont have a root pw to login. I try to boot from irix 5.3 CD to reset the root pw , but I cant mount the disk . mount /dev/dsk/dks0d1s0 /root (invalid argument, file system unknown ) , I read about serial console connection but i dont have a null modem cable for Indy . Do i have any chance to install this machine new ? PROM reset to factory default ? thank you

I have Keyboard and Mouse. How can I resetenv if i dont access per Terminal ? hotkeys ? boot from irix 5.3 CD was from the other machine. From Indy I cant boot from CD.

I dont have a root pw (machine from ebay, the seller cant help) i think connect per console cable is my last option right ? I dont understand why i cant mount the disk with irix 5.3 CD on the Indigo ? mount /dev/dsk/dks0d1s0 /root (invalid argument). I try mount -t efs ...mount -t xfs
but the same msg invalid argument. Where did it save the setenv information ? in the PROM ? is removing the DALLAS akku a option ?

is a good idea, but dont work for me. I just build a serial cable and i can fire setenv console g now.
BIG THANK to all here
