In any case, before the reboot the procedure tells you how to do a conversational boot if need be. You can always use that to clear out the "MINI" in STARTUP_P1. If worst comes to worst, you can always type in the bootstrap by hand like I had to (for different reasons). Since it boots with it's own startup procedure, it seems odd that it even cares about the MINIMUM... /Kevin Carosso engvax!kvc @ CIT-VAX.ARPA Hughes Aircraft Co. ps. Has anyone else been getting duplicates of INFO-VAX or TCP-IP all day today? Stuff looks like it's getting bounced off LOUIE.UDEL.EDU back to the mailing list. This is getting ridiculous!!!!!
