The "halt" switch is set. This causes the
system to pop into ODT rather
than to run programs. On the 11/23 there are _two_ halt switches, one on
the front of the box and one on the BDV11 boot/terminator board. I'm
guessing that you switched on, or the other, or both somehow.
I would not suspect this since the system actually ran the ROM code
far enough to prompt 'Start?'... If it were in the halt position,
you wouldn't even get this much...
