Can anyone please help... I am trying to install OpenVMS 7.3-1 for the first time onto a DEC 3000 Model 600, I have checked the compatibility of the hardware and the console firmware is the latest version however the installation process hangs with the message "%SWAPPER-I-SYSDISK, checking status of system disk" Has anyone experienced this before.
