[HECnet] Boot VAX from Alpha host Infoserver?

[Steve Davidson]

Fred,

My link to MIM is out-to-lunch/out-on-loan.   At the moment I can't get
to anywhere on HECnet.   I will reconnect as soon as the link is
restored.

-Steve

The cluster/satellite connection is always an option and I have

That's OK, a colleague of mine suggested the same thing too, but I was 
determined to get the Infoserver to work ... (still am as I like the 
concept)

I do like Gerry's idea of using a SIMH VAX to get things up and running,

booting the physical VAX as a satellite which would then pose no risk to

MISER.

FRUGAL:: is now turned on and you can access the console if you wish.
