Absolutely. Servers don't need a GUI.

Problem! The system has booted and is sitting at the operator's console. It doesn't respond to my keyboard. I haven't yet gotten DECnet enabled or any remote access so I can't access the system.
Any ideas?

You only have one alternative that works across all the cisco boxes in
HECnet, SNMP.
As I made a a image that works on 2500 with 8M flash and 16M ram,
there is not room for SSH....
Can you try MOP RC?

I'm curious, how long does the script take to run?
My last run was:

so about 15 minutes, which seems to be about average.

What version VMS are you trying to boot and what version of the firmware.
