I'm curious, how long does the script take to run?
My last run was:
start time: 2013-01-12 21:40:59
end time: 2013-01-12 21:56:08
so about 15 minutes, which seems to be about average.

What version VMS are you trying to boot and what version of the firmware.
8.4 and revision 6.6. Problem was that console was set to serial instead of graphics I was using the graphics adapter. ;)
Can you boot to SYSBOOT> ?

Found the solution myself, I probably need to set console to graphics. ;)

They are also noisy, produce heat and tend to break down more easily..

They appear on Ebay quite often, and their size is quite small relative to most of the VAX stuff, so shipping is cheaper.

Grrrr. ;)
This one came out of an old
sawmill in town a few years ago - I got a phone call saying that they
had heard that there was "some old mainframe crap" getting scrapped at
the sawmill and heard that I was one of those crazy collectors.
!!
WTF? Since when is an Alpha storage array "old", "mainframe", or
"crap"?
I hate stupid people. But sometimes their stupidity gets thinking people
good, high-end hardware.
By the time I got there, the drive array and some documentation was
all that was left. It lied around my garage for a year or so, then
spurred me into getting the DS10L to give it something to hook up to.
Nice. The Alpha it was originally connected to probably went to a
dealer
for big bucks.

One of the Qlogic 1020 or 1040 based KZP should be easy and cheap to find.
You don't want the KZPBA-CB though as it's HVD.
