My Sun 1/100U lives once again... reseated the boards and realized someone
had removed the ram board. I just happen to have ram boards that came from
a sun 2 server, and poof! It lives!

The monitor is in pretty good shape, the image is shifted a bit, but it
looks like its mostly if not all visible.

The main problems are: I have no idea how to enter the local prom mode,
or even if there is a local prom mode.. Whups! Looks liek one way is to
let the computer time out on its boot attempt. I still cant get any
help on available prom commands. 'printenv' printed a small hex-dump like
thing, then immediately the screen cleared and rebooted...

Anyways, main problem is going to be locating the OS for this computer.
Does anyone have SUN OS for a Sun 2 class computer? I forget what its
called, suntools or sunview or something like that..
