Your OBP settings have incompatible values for input-device and output-device, it seems. What does "getenv" show from the ok> OBP prompt? Your "input-device" and "output-device" should be compatible (that means "input=keyboard, output=screen or both ttya or ttyb). In a pinch, you can hold-down Stop-N during the boot process to reset your OBP to default values (which may not be what you want depending upon your configuration, which we know nothing about).
