QUESTION:

If I take a mistake in writing in OBP

setenv output-device smth_bad
setenv input-device smth_bad

Any input or output then failed.
What can I do then ?
(reset smth physically? or somehow else?)

ANSWER:

with a keyboard attatched, try typing [STOP]+N right after you turn the
machine on. I'm not sure it will work if you changed the "input device"
environment variable, but this command tells the machine to set defaults,
and if it will accept keyboard input, it should fix the problem.
 
That was mentioned in solaris answerbook too.

Thanks.
