[HECnet] Boot VAX from Alpha host Infoserver?

Fred, My link to MIM is out-to-lunch/out-on-loan. At the moment I can't get to anywhere on HECnet. I will reconnect as soon as the link is restored. -Steve -----Original Message----- From: owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE [mailto:owner-hecnet at Update.UU.SE] On Behalf Of Fred Sent: Tuesday, November 24, 2009 13:08 To: hecnet at Update.UU.SE Subject: RE: [HECnet] Boot VAX from Alpha host Infoserver?

We though we had an answer late last night but to no avail. That's OK, a colleague of mine suggested the same thing too, but I was determined to get the Infoserver to work ... (still am as I like the concept) I do like Gerry's idea of using a SIMH VAX to get things up and running, booting the physical VAX as a satellite which would then pose no risk to MISER. FRUGAL:: is now turned on and you can access the console if you wish. Fred
