I've just been donated (by Saku Setala) a pair of MicroVAX 3400s.


One of them is set up as a satellite node and boots fine off ESA0 - however, I can't figure out what I need to do to make it automatically boot when powered on   - anyone know what switch / console command I need to give to make this happen?

At the moment it starts up to the >>> prompt and if I type boot, it boots happily. I'm just trying to get it to autoboot instead.

Would it be dep bdr 0 as it is in simh for auto boot on a real VAX?

(if i'm wrong, let me know)
