After attempting to set the correct time on my SparcBook 3 the system =
locked up hard, I pulled power, and I haven't been able to reboot since.
FYI, I had been using Pause-O to suspend the system.
I was in "su" mode at the time I used the date command.
The command I used was "date 08301415" because "date 0008301415" would =
not take eventhough that is the correct usage (i.e. yymmddhhmm)
The system set the correct date, 08/30, but reset the year to the unix =
epoc, 1969.
Please advise me on how I can set the TOD clock using OpenBoot or =
otherwise get my system booting up again.
I noticed that "date" entered at the OpenBoot prompt, "ok", returns
ok date
10/06/2105 03:49:18  GMT
but I was unable to find a way to set the date in OpenBoot.

@ boot up I see:
