I am connected to my server using a serial connection. I am currently at the ALOM menu (as shown below. I need to get to the {ok} prompt. How do I get there from here?
FYI, One major complication: I don't have the boot password. I'm trying to reset it and install Solaris from a boot disc.
ALOM <ESC> Menu
f - Wait for flash download from host.
C - Copy Boot Monitor from FLASHBOAT.
j - Jump to main code (at 0x01010000).
m - Run POST Menu.
(Do not try this after a flash update of the boot monitor!)
d - play DOOM
s - Set clock speed
e - Set external and internal console serial ports baud rate
i - Set internal control serial port baud rate
t - Toggle 'OK' flag
R - Reset SC
b,h,w - Read byte/halfword/word
B,H,W - Write byte/halfword/word
r - Return to bootmon

Press the keys:
Ctrl + Function (Fn) + F12 (which should be "pause") and a message should appear on screen.
Do this AFTER all the probing, and give it a try to understand when it's the right time to give those key strokes.
I'm using SecureCRT.
