OpenVMS
(TM) VAX Version V7.2 Major version id = 1 Minor versio [cut]
%DECnet-I-LOADED, network base image loaded, version = 05.0D.00
%DECnet-W-NOOPEN, could not open SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSEXE]NET$CONFIG.DAT
Bizarre, even missing DECnet/OSI configs (which is what that error points
to) shouldn't cause a crash.
Time for a conversational boot. At the dead sergeant prompt (>>>) do B/1
You'll get a SYSBOOT> prompt. Type 'set startup_p1 "min"' then C
to
continue. This will at least get you running. Once logged in do 'product
show product' and give us the output. DECnet is obviously not happy.
So I did this. First time through, it appeared to boot happily and asked
for the date and time, let me log in, and then crashed, so I never got to
the point where I could PRODUCT SHOW PRODUCT.
Next and all subsequent times through, it crashes at the same point above
without even getting to a Username: prompt, MIN or conversational boot or
otherwise.
Ideas, or reach for the OpenVMS CD? Is there an easy way to use the SCSI
port on the VAXstation 3100 (I hear it has a different pinout)?
