HELP !

I typed "boot devalias" at the ok prompt by mistake and now it is sitting at a prompt saying "Enter filename [devalias]" cos its trying to boot as file called devalias and failing.

How can i get it to drop back to OBP from here ? Or is it the on/off button.....

You should be able to stop A in this scenario.

Or enter the path to the kernel file.
