[mdlug] "Stop-A"... without a "Stop"

[Wojtak, Greg]

If you are using a V440, #. will drop you to the ALOM, at which point you
type break and then console to get back on the console.  Keep in mind that a
running system may be configured to ignore break signals and will not drop
to the ok> prompt.  If that's the case, you'll need to get it on boot,
before the OS loads.
