Hi all,
  I've seen this problem on the net before, but do not remember
the solution and I have to help a friend out today (SAT DEC 19).

He just got a brand new turbo cube dimension system.  He booted it
up and 3.0 was pre-installed.  He then used the ND upgrade diskette
and installed the packages on it.  Afterwards he powered down his 
machine and tried to re power it up it would die.

It gives the following error messeges when booting in the rom
monitor:
loginwindow 131   cannot find window server port


Is there a quick fix, copying a couple of files to the right place
from the 3.0 CD ROM?

Or must I rebuild the whole HD?

At any rate I would greatly appreciate any help on this.

later, John
