Help!

I brought home a old Sun 3/80 Workstation from work. When I boot up the computer I get this following message:

AUTO-BOOT IN PROGRESS Error:Missing or invalid ID prom le: no carrier Requesting a Internet Address Error: Missing or Invalid ID prom le: no carrier Error:Missing or Invalid ID prom le: no carrier

(I get the above line over and over Error: Missing or Invalid ID prom le : no carrier )

Can anyone help this Unix novice trying to learn Unix? How can I stop the above loop so I can log-in? Any help would greatly appreciated.

Sincerely Jack
