Thanks!
A little patience goes a long way! I was double pressing the power
button too soon. I waited a little further into to boot process and I
saw a long rapid flash of the maintenance led. At that point, double
pressing the power button sets the NVRAM to default.
I now have the V880 working on ttya, and that's how it will stay until I
have time to deal with the RSC.
Thanks to ALL for the help! Additional thanks to the following who
responded:
Darren Dunham
Scott Howard ( Who hinted on the patience. )
Brian Pardy
Ritesh Patel
Steve Paige ( Reassured me that I was on the right track. )
Ilya Birman
