This Itanium console crap is maddening.  I am in an infinite reboot
cycle because the system comes up and crashes.  The CTRL-Ecf, as per
the help...

Executing CO command from the main MP menu provides a mirrored version of the
OS console.  All users connected to the console see the same output. Verify
that all mirrored consoles are of the same terminal type for proper
operation. Only one of the mirrored users at a time has write access to the
console. Any user can get write access to the console, by typing CTRL-e c f
(not CTRL-e CTRL-c CTRL-f).  Write access is retained until another user 
requests console write access.

... simply does not work to gain access.
