UDB Firmware Prob

Hmmmm. Having a problem with my UDB. Rebooted a while ago, (Had RH4
running fine) turned the power off then back on (after shutting down
the system), and am now unable to get to the standard boot menu that
is usually presented at power-up.

What I get on power-up now is some sort of VGA test is executed
for the TGA card, and then:

version BL3 X3.5-72 Nov 30 1994 18:22:35

dka0.0.0.6.0 DKA0 MAXTOR 7345-SCSI 2065
dva0.0.0.0.1 DVA0
ewa0.0.0.8.0 EWA0 08-00-2B-E5-35-6B
pka0.7.0.6.0 PKA0 SCSI Bus ID 7

24 Meg of system memory

>>>

and then sits there at the prompt.

Could something have happened to erase the S-RAM that held the
normal boot up bootloader?

I guess the main question is, how do I get my machine back to a
usable state, and what is this mode that it currently boots in.
Do I need to re-load some firmware or something?

The last thing I did before rebooting was try to set the system
date using the date command (it did not work).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
