 As a proof, this email is sent to the list via my 4000/60, running
 NetBSD without a console terminal attached. (Some proof, i know ... 8-)
 The 4000/vlc works just as well.
 To get the 4000/60 autobooting you have to have
        SET BOOT dka0 (or whatever your system disk is)
        SET HALT 1
        SET BFLG 0 
 It works. :^)
 The "disconnect your terminal" part was the thing. I find it odd that
the box won't even finish power-up diags if the terminal is connected
and turned off.
