Apple Workgroup Server 6150/66 - Manual (Page 69)

A “sad Macintosh” icon appeared and the server won’t start up.
Your server cannot start up because of a problem with the system software or
the server hardware.
m Eject any floppy disks (or CD-ROM discs) by turning off the server and
then holding down the mouse button while you turn the server on again. Try
starting up with a different startup disk (such as the Workgroup Server
Software CD-ROM disc). If the “sad Macintosh” icon appears again,
consult the service and support information that came with your server for
instructions on how to contact an Apple-authorized service provider or
Apple for assistance.
You see an error message at startup telling you that the system will use the LocalTalk port.
If you will not be using an Ethernet network, you need to change the setting in
the Network control panel from EtherTalk to the appropriate network. See “If
You Need to Switch the Network Connection” in Chapter 2.
The server’s clock keeps time inaccurately.
Your server has a clock that runs continuously. When the computer is turned off,
a battery keeps the clock running. If your clock begins to keep time inaccurately,
have your Apple-authorized service provider replace the battery.
The server starts up from the wrong hard disk, or the hard disk icon does not appear on
the desktop.
The startup disk may be slow to start up. Restart the server.
During startup, your server’s operating system finds and mounts attached SCSI
devices that are up and running within 20 seconds. Some very large hard disk
drives (such as 2-gigabyte drives) may take longer than 20 seconds to come up
to speed and therefore may not be recognized by the operating system when
the server is first turned on. Restarting the server enables your system to find
these devices because they will be able to reach full operating speed during the
second startup cycle.
