Reboot problem

This is probably simple, but since there is no one around hre who seems
to be familiar with IRIX, I'm hoping somone in this group can help me
out.

I was changing an SGI O2, IRIX 6.5.14 to have a statiuc IP address, and
after I did the usual stuff from the System manager, I needed to
restart. Now it won't reboot; I keep getting the message:

Unable to execute )scsi(0)disk(2)rdisk(0)partition( Cool

/sh: no such
device
Unable to load bootfile: no such device

Nothing I've tried seems to work around it, though since I'm no IRIX
expert, I'm not even sure if I'm doing the right thing. Can anyone
point me in the right direction?

Go into the prom and give the command resetenv
