Re:
(1) is there any way to figure out how to turn off
the
"Remote: locked inactive multiple ACCESS FAULT:"
messages that come up when you go into the CM?
No, sorry.
BTW, the text is supposed to get displayed on the 25th line
(the "status line"). If you don't have an HP compatible terminal,
or emulator, you can get a free one for Windows at

(2) is there any way to speed up the self tests that
happen when you go "CO" ? it takes about 5 minutes to get to the PDC . . .
Possibly. The time scales with the amount of memory. If you're not
really using the machine for much, pull some or most of the memory out.
I had one machine of that family do a 30 minute selftest when I loaded it
to the (way-past-HP-spec) maximum memory. (I thought the machine was dead,
got distracted and went away...came back later and found the selftest had
finally completed :)
(The selftest time scaling isn't as bad on newer machines, BTW)
You could also turn off memory self-test, but I don't recommend that.
