The most wonderful part of it is that it no longer automatically reboots because we run 4.2 on it, not VMS. Booting currently consists of: 1) automatic boot off of console tape which loads the Diag Super and micro-code patches 2) mere mortal gets notified by angry students that system is DOWN 3) mortal goes in and finishes booting poor 750 by hand. There has GOT to be a better way! Has anyone figured out how to load the micro-code patches themselves and put this fix in the UNIX boot program? Any help would be appreciated. -- dave cohrs ...!{allegra,harvard,ihnp4,seismo}!uwvax!dave dave@wisc-limburger.arpa (bug? what bug? that's a feature!)
