I have a HP 16700A logic analyzer that I'm trying to troubleshoot. I can get access to the console via the serial port, and I can see that it boots up normally, except that it fails to start the X server, and drops to a login prompt for which I have no credentials.

I "inherited" one of these at HP Labs, but I don't use it much any more.

Yours looks pretty healthy, except for the display issue.   (You are watching 
it boot up into HP-UX of course.)

This is just a guess, but I'd try it with several different monitors.  It may 
be that the server doesn't like the VESA DDI/DDC information it is seeing.

You might also try using an XDMCP login.   I vaguely recall that is supposed to 
work.  But I'm not sure you can get this to work without being able to set it 
up on the console.

(BTW, I was able to load a more recent software image than what was originally 
on my 16700A when I inherited it.  I found it on the Agilent site, naturally.   
That was five or so years ago.  You might want to check there.)
