Do you happen to remember the hostid? You can just pick one, of course, but
it's best if you remember it. I'll assume the last three octets of the
hostid are AA BB CC.
ok 0 f mkp
ok 8 0 20 AA BB CC AABBCC mkpl
(press Ctrl-D Ctrl-R)
(Sun Microsystems copyright notice should NOT appear)
ok
This will restore the IDPROM to proper working state.
