All:

Can anyone advise regarding these messages?

dpkg-reconfigure 
sysv-rc 


info: Checking if it is safe to convert to dependency based 
boot.

sequencing.

I have purged a bunch of packages that were previously removed but not 
purged.  That leaves just the above.

I have found information about these obsolete init.d script messages 
that indicate the problem was that the package did not properly remove a 
script that was no longer included in the package.

How do I fix this?  I don't even know what it is complaining about

And, then, how do I fix up the missing LSB tags and overrides messages?

Thank you.

Cheers,
Dave

 I believed the issue to be the NVRAM/TOD chip, but replacing it has 
 not changed anything.  I have swapped the power supply, removed all 
 PCI cards, and the machine continues to have some limited activity as 
 above, but without the power light illuminated, it will not do 
 anything visible -- i.e. nothing on the attached monitor.

 Is the keyboard properly plugged in? Will it run if started with 
 something attached to serial port A?


As far as I can tell, yes.  When I power it up the lights across the top 
(Type 6 keyboard - num Loc, Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, Compose) flash on 
briefly.

It used to only work via a serial connection to [I believe] port A.  
Once it stopped working, I've gone back to trying to use a connected Sun 
keyboard and PC monitor via adapter.

This morning, I have the cover off.  When I power up the machine while 
holding Stop-N, I get a beep, the 4 lights flash on briefly and then 
off, I then hear the [CPU?] fan come up and then shut down.  The power 
light on the front of the machine never comes on.  This is the typical 
behavior.

If I leave it plugged in [or is it plugged in and turned on?] for a 
while, eventually, the front power LED will light -- takes a few days, 
though.

Cheers,
Dave
