Terminal command to reset PRAM?
Hello all,
The startup chime on my Mac Pro won't sound.
I've tried resetting the PRAM by restarting with command option P R keys until the thing chimes twice, but no luck on subsequent restarts.
Some other threads have suggested doing the command option P R trick until the chime sounds three or even four times. Done that, but again there is no startup chime on subsequent starts.
Curiously, trying to reset the PRAM like that did not change any preferences at all.
Anyhoo, is it possible to reset the PRAM from the Terminal, and if so, what is the command?
Many thanks,
Dennis
