Does
    REM ...AT.
    INS $BIGIND/PRI=10.
work? The first cmd may cause an error, if there is no AT loaded at all. 
The second will install larger the 12K version of IND if present, a 
prerequisite for a sysgen that may be also used in normal operation. It 
is IIRC rather uncommon to discard IND for space issues; there are other 
less frequently used tasks to be removed for a turnkey system. Is the 
disk rather full anyway?

This is for instance necessary for a sysgen (INS a /BIG version of it). If this fails, the TSK is broken. The sysgen rebuilds IND from an OLB regularly; there is a BLD file for this. You don't need to run a full sysgen for it (infact, with a broken @ processor, you can't).
