This weekend I picked up a DECsystem 5000/240 system,

120MB of ram). This system was never turned on! Brand new, just never
got used...
I have a 2gb disk, and cdrom on it, and am installing Ultrix 4.5 now...
I am using a VT510 as the console.
Anyone know how to setup, etc the Prestoserve option?
It's been a long while since I played with a Prestoserve! From what I can
recall (less than usual today - far too much motor sport in the wrong
timezones this weekend!) in earlier versions of Ultrix there was some add
on software, but 4.5 is sufficiently recent that it's probably built in.
Have you tried "man prestoserve"?
