It gets stuck on a Turbosparc SS5 here:

ok boot cdrom

It occurs to me that this system has all you'd want to look at this
remotely: there's a CD rewriter in it, it's hooked up to a console
server and is set up for remote power on.  Nor is it in active use
at the moment so it doesn't really matter if it gets hosed. There'd
be a few hoops to jump through in terms of network infrastructure
to arrange access, but if it is access to physical hardware that
is the problem I could probably sort something.
