Automount

Hello,

I have several Sunfire 280Rs running Solaris 8 2/02 s28s_u7wos_08a SPARC. I
created /etc/auto.xa for automounting. I could not automount because of
permission problem. I change permissions to 644 for /etc/auto.xa,
/etc/auto_home and /etc/auto_master to get the automount to work. When the
machines were rebooted, they would not come up and the keyboard is locked.
The only thing working is "Stop-A". System stops after displaying the
following:

        Configuring /dev and /devices.
        Configuring the /dev directory (Compatible devices)
        The System is coming up. Please wait.

I have not been able to move beyond this point and four of my twelve systems
are down because of this problem. I have brought the system up to single
user booting from the CDROM and changing the permissions back to what they
were before but this did not help.

What could I have done wrong and how can I fix it before the rest of the
systems go down?
