Problem resolved - Thanks to:

The problem was related to the SCSI connection to our STK 9710 tape silo.
As suggested by George, I disconnected all SCSI devices and reconnected
them one by one until the culprit was uncovered.
Thanks again,

Hi All -
We have a SPARC20 that we use as a test box. I haven't used it in a few
weeks, now it won't boot. I'm stumped.
The memory checks ok, then I get the following:
Boot device: /iommu/sbus/espdma@f,400000/esp@f,800000/sd@3,0
SunOS Release 5.7 Version Generic [UNIX(R) System V Release 4.0]

esp: pkt_state=0x0 pkw_flags=0x808 pkt_statistics=0x60
esp: cmd_flags=0x1462 cmd_timeout=0
The messages above repeat continually until I do a stop a
Stop d does not work
probe-scsi comes back okay
probe-scsi-all hangs
test-memory comes back with no errors
cannot boot from cd_rom either
I'm new to the SPARC/Sun enviroment.
I've looked through the archives and throughout Sun's website, but can't
find anything to help.
Any ideas?
TIA
Dona
