Hmm.. it seems that the pdf is containing thestuff that I've already read somewhere on HP's website.
There are two possibilities: [>>> B/R5:10000000 DKA400: [ [ [If you are booting from an InfoServer device, enter a command that [specifies root 1. For example, on a VAX 6000 computer, enter: [ [ [>>> B/R5:10000100/X:D/B:6 ET0 [ Ok, the first should fit with an abbrevation: B/R5:10000000 DUA3 (I have a VAX4000-300 not an VS4000/90, nor I have an VAX6000..) and this boots until the message with the write protected disk dua3..(sorry, don't have it handy..) and than the system hangs. When I simply boot B dua3 the install system asks for a date and I finally get a "$". Thats all.. That's why I've asked what todo..
