Hi,

anyone know how I can get my sparc working again, I am getting this error 
output.  I have no keyboard or monitor, so am accessing this through 
null-modem cable to my pc using minicom :)

Error output as follows:

NVRAM Access Test
    FAILURE: NVRAM (f2000003) Battery Failure, Exp = 000000ff, Obs = 00000000

Probing /sbus at 1,f8000000 at 3,0  Nothing there
Can't open input device.

Any help much appreciated

Thanks in advance

Quintin
