I know how to boot a CD-ROM in a VAX. I've got the
VMS 7.2
hobbyist, VMS
7.2 regular distrib, and VMS 7.3 regular distrib, and when I boot them
all, I just go into standalone backup. I thought maybe there was some
"trick" I didn't know about to boot into a regular VMS system.
The 7.2 discs also kick me into standalone backup -- not that I
have a problem with that, of course. I'm pretty sure it's not
"normal" VMS, though, since, IIRC, the only command I could get
to work is BACKUP. (Characteristic of standalone backup, of course)
