Steve,
I would agree - I don't think I was successful in simply setting EFI to 'vms_flags
0,0'. I think I was required to null STARTUP_P1 (as shown in my earlier
"script" that was negated within this thread).
Take care,
Joe

No.
It is a property of the hardware bootstrap.
BTW - for the "default" boot within VMS, STARTUP_P1 should be set to the NULL
string.

Is there any way to do this from VMS?

Sampsa,
I believe you can

I've somehow managed to make my rx2600's VMS boot give me a SYSBOOT>
prompt every damn time.
How do I turn this off?
