Stuck at a console
Hi
Will typing a boot command for an AXP 4100,
I accidentally hit a wrong key
Now my machine I think is waiting for me to type something extra but I
don't know
what it is. Any suggestions?
I could get the ops guys to turn the power off I guess
P00>>>halt
CPU 0 is halted
P00>>>b -fl 3,`1

I've never seen it, but it looks like a continuation.
The thing being continued has to be the `1 ... waiting for an other `
fwiw,

That would make sense. The console is a micro Unix shell of some sort.

4100's do have a RESET button. Should do the trick for you.

A CTRL-C might work to get you back to the normal prompt.

CTRL+P might do it, also. Dunno - don't have a 4100 to play with.
....and it's not called a "RESET" button, it's called a HALT button on a 4100. My
bad.

I don't have a 4100 I can look at but ISTR the ones I used to have had
three buttons on the front, power, halt, and reset.
