Rebooting Or Restarting The System After A Power Failure

Question:
I rebooted the system, or the system went down because of power failure.  Now the server will not come back up. The cursor just blinks in the upper left corner of the screen.   There is also a message about "non- system disk".

Answer:
Most likely someone left a diskette in the diskette drive.  Remove the diskette, then try pressing the enter key. The server should come up then. If not, turn off the server, wait about 30 seconds, and turn it back on.  If it does not start to come up then, there may be a hardware problem.  Please call c-Systems.
