I increased my buffer size to 64 in the ROM monitor using sd- nbu=64. 
To do this, I entered single-user mode. I got to the ROM monitor by
doing an su to root, using the "shutdown now" command, and then "halt". At ROM
prompt I typed "p" and then changed the buffer size.

Now I can't log in as root. I get "Workspace Manager error just 
after logging in and must log in to my account. I CAN su to root.

What must I do? Rebuild system? :-(
