 comment How to recover saved (stored) emails after damage to KMail configuration?

 comment What OS should I install on old Sun Blade 1000 / Sun Blade 2000 workstations, and how should I do it?
Thanks for these hints, but one question remains: How do I get to the OpenBoot prompt with a PC style keyboard, i.e. with one that does not have a "Stop" key?
