[. . . ] When prompted by the console display, enter the time and system name. The server should now function as a stand-alone system, except for an error in the /etc/rc. log file stating that the program "swagentd" could not start. This is because the new kernel was not built with enough networking support to allow the SD-UX (swinstall) software to run since no valid network drivers (btlan3) were found on the 10. 20 media. To rebuild the kernel to allow the swinstall software to run, follow the remainder of this procedure. Log in as a "root" user and edit the "/stand/system" file to add the line: lan0.
