Answer / t.k.chaitanya

if the /etc/system file is deleted we cant boot the system
coz while booting (during kernel initialization phase)it
reads /etc/system file (which contains all commented lines
i.e its an empty file)so we need to boot interactively from
the cdrom as follows

1 insert the cdrom
2 Stop-A
3 ok>boot -a
now the system asks for all the file needed to boot
type y for all the files so that the default file is selected
but when it askes for the /etc/system file the type /dev/null

4 /etc/system :y] = /dev/null

and carry on the same way by giving teh default files
After the system is booted successesfully creat a file
/etc/system file usint touch command

Answer / mohammed mukram

above answer is correct except for the step 1. No need to
insert the cdrom. directly you can use the boot -a (
interactive boot) at the OK prompt. rest can go with step 4.
