I administrate a 3b2/400 running SysV R3.1. Because of contruction going on around the campus this summer we have occasional (unexpeted) power failures. As inconvienent as that is, it is far more inconvient for me to haul myself into campus at for three+ hours just to hit the power-on switch. (I'm also a student as well as a Sys Admin).. and watch it boot and fsck the partitions very nicely by itself. Is there a kernel hack or firware setting or DIP switch that will cause the system to boot itself and clean up after itself (or at least try) on power recovery? Thanks for any help, -- Mitch Patenaude Humboldt State University, 3b2/400 Sys. Admin. and Tech. support g-patena@steer.calstate.edu Gandalf@calstate.BITNET
