I removed /etc/eisa/system.sci file and this computer still rebooting 4
times in order to be successfully go to the CDE login environment. Is there
anything else that I need to do?

Thank you,
Ingrid Budiman

Hi Ingrid

helps.

PROBLEM
The system is rebooting repeatedly, and this message is issued
as it reboots:

     eisa_config running in automatic mode to fix a configuration
     mismatch
        Date: 10/02/98    12:34:29
     The NVM is not internally consistent. The previous NVM contents
     (if any) will be disregarded. This error may indicate a hardware
     problem with your EISA NVM.
     Restoring configuration from default sci file
(/etc/eisa/system.sci).
     Successfully saved configuration in NVM and in
/etc/eisa/system.sci.
     The system will be rebooted now.
     eisa_config finished

I can prevent the reboots by repeatedly pressing the Enter key as the
system reboots, but if left untouched, the system reboots over and over
again with this same message.

How can I resolve this problem?
CONFIGURATION
Operating System - HP-UX
Version - 10.20
Hardware System - C160

RESOLUTION

To resolve your problem:

     1.  Locate the /etc/eisa/system.sci file.

     2.  Remove the /etc/eisa/system.sci file.

         Note: This file is sometimes corrupted during a power outage.
