Our 750 (running 4.2) occasionally does not reboot properly on an auto reboot. Sometimes the communication multiplexers, dm0 and dm1, do not interrupt. When they do not interrupt, the system will appear to be in multi-user mode at the console, however, no getty's are spawned and so no one, except the person at the console, can get up on the system. If the system is reboot again, the mutiplexers interrupt and everything is fine and dandy. However, someone has to be on site to reboot. Below is a copy of /usr/adm/messages showing what is logged on the console when the mux's do not interrupt and when the system is reboot and the mux's interrupt. If you need/want any more information about this situation, feel free to ask me. Do you know what is the problem and/or how to rectify it?
