[comp.sys.hp] Hp9000/550 crash

Hi!
We have a *little* problem. Here's what happened:
We have 9000/550 with 5.12 kernel. I have just connected mux ports 6
and 7 with null-modem cable and then I just typed 
cat /dev/tty16 
from another terminal and went to console to send something to /dev/tty17.
It should have echoed everything to /dev/tty16, but it didm't... In
fact nothing happened, not even in console... After about 5min I
rebooted and here's what followed:
(This is not all, I've clipped some extra away)

Looking for system...

		      save work in progress, shut down gracefully, and reboot.


So that's all folks. Any suggestions what to do next?
It obviously starts doing something since it can display date and
time but then init dies....:(
