Hi,
I think if this is similar to the Rolm's virtual consoles,
the correct syntax would be to enter the device address followed
by "B" for boot. i.e. "33B" would do a channel boot from the
floppy drive (Miltope type).
"T" would print the current register contents, and an octal
number followed by "/" would print the memory's contents of
the address given and wait for the input of a new value. Just
enter keeps the original value and steps to the next
memory location.
Best regards,
Erik.

I believe you are at a DG virtual console prompt. Try
"B" following by a two-digit octal device code. You can't hurt anything by
trying invalid codes, although the machine may lock up until you recycle power.
I am not sure what the correct device code is for a DG Desktop Generation machine, but
try something in the 20's or 30's.
