I'm probably overlooking something terribly obvious, but is there
some way to make a VAXstation II/GPX use the console SLU rather than
the VCB02 graphics system, short of pulling the VCB02 cards?
And if I do that, will VMS also use the SLU for the console?
I'd like to make an image backup of the RD54 in the machine, since
I need to wipe it to install NetBSD. Does anyone have any suggestions
about the best way to go about that? AFAIK the TK50 drive in the machine
probably works, and I do have some tapes. I could probably fumble my way
through making some sort of backup, but then I wouldn't know how to restore
it later.
Or, if anyone has a spare RD54, then I wouldn't *need* to wipe the
disk. :-)
Thanks!
Eric
