Have you got a VAX with SCSI disks such as a VAXstation
3100 or 4000?  I
seem to recall you do.  If so you can simply boot off of it's system disk.
If not, try and get an ESDI or SCSI controller (warning, Q-Bus SCSI
controllers are expensive). 
        I've got a Dilog ESDI system in my MVII.  It originally had
two 380MB Maxtor FH drives installed but I pulled one out to keep
around as a backup.  It seems to be a pretty nice setup.   I wouldn't
mind finding an ethernet board for it though.
