Try replacing the cdrom if you can.

Also try the break command.

any of these MIGHT work.!

your server is booting over the network... if no bootserver is configured in your network, this won't work. you'll have to send a break signal (from sc) and boot from a local device. check the output of devalias from the ok prompt or try a probe-scsi-all after a setenv auto-boot? false and a reset-all from ok prompt.

login to SP

cd /HOST
set send_break_action="break"

then start /SP/console it will go to OK promt.
try this.
