I got a used 386i staring me in the face, which won't boot because it is
looking for a server to boot it up. Until the manuals arrive (when I can
re-install) I'd like to play with it. It is a 250 model if that helps. I
know nothing about the 386i but I do know about the SUN-3 series.

When I try to boot it single user it still looks for a host. Please send
E-mail since I doubt anyone else wants to see this. This is the only 386i
that we have in house so I can't even configure another ws to boot it.
PLEASE HELP.
