[SunHELP] Logon problem

[Bruce Pullig]

Reboot off of CD-ROM, mount the root filesystem, and delete something that 
is not needed.
Delete:

/var/adm/messages.(0,1,2,3)
restoresymtable
core
/var/crash/`uname -n`/*
/var/spool/mqueue/*

Do a ls -l /dev/rmt and make sure all entries are links.   Sometimes people 
screw up syntax and dump to a file. Example: tar cvf /dev/rmt/0nb  will 
create a file instead of dumping to tape.

Once you have some space, reboot.
