Not really. If you restore the correct saveset (.B), you'll get the
bootblock and other stuff setup correctly as a part of the procedure. 

Find the right saveset. .A is not it.

That's what I said from the get-go and I was not familiar at all with the
file he called out several messages back.

There should be 4, IIRC, savesets labeled VMS046.A, .B, .C and .D.   Restore
the VMS046.B as an image to the boot drive and boot it.

Hmmm, trying different tapes allows me to restore a .B, however it's still not bootable.   I wonder if i'm missing an option somewhere...
