Hey I started this thread only appropriate that I put it back on track. :-)

Well here are the Stats for today: 2 MicroVAX 3300/3400's up and running
with the new default password of SYSTEM/MANAGER. The first one had it's
drive 0 fault light on (I know not why) and I somehow managed to convince
it to boot and let me alter the SYSTEM password (from the FAQ, thanks every
one). The second system was a little bit more of a pain, it went smoothly
until it came time to reboot reboot. But was convinced to boot with the
reset and manually typed commands. I also managed to convince the boss
to let me borrow one of the machines (I didn't say how long :-).

Now for further questions: 1) If I have > KSQSA/M5976-SA - Qbus to SCSI
adapter can I put a SCSI disk on it and boot it? 2) the drive that is in
the system (DAI0) is it an MFM drive?

I'm about ready to start playing with the system, I'm torn between 1 NetBSD
(I need NetBSD for testing HA code)/1 OpenVMS (I wouldn't mind writing code
for it :-) or having an OpenVAX Cluster. Hmmm, the choices!
