I have a 5000/120, running ultrix 4.3. IT used to have a monitor and
keyboard attached, i removed them, and the video card, i'm now booting
it via the serial console. Works fine when booting into single user mode
I can fix stuff, etc. When i boot into multi user, after /etc/rc finishes
running, it does nothing, no login prompt at console, i can telnet in fine.
It appears its running Xws still, and Xws is taking over the console from
the serial port, how can I keep Xws from running, only place I could find
Xws in /etc was in /etc/ttys, and i commented it out of there, but I still
have the problem. Any ideas? Also, how do I change the ROM to boot the
right drive at bootup, its trying 3/rz2/vmunix right now, and should be
doing 3/rz3/vmunix.
 
Thanks in advance,
Brian
