Didn't know that. I'll file it under "emergency things I hope I never need to know". :)
Another thing to file under that heading is the fact that NACs are excellent network booters thanks to their OpenBoot. Just in case you had a NAC whose disks decided to become utterly corrupted.
I just wish there was a way to enable breaks from console. Then I wouldn't have to go down to the computer room at all to service them. Well, maybe if they became COMPLETELY hosed. If someone knows how to enable this, I'd greatly appreciate the information. Also, the equivalent of the "go" command would be very usefull to go along with the above.
