Now my system boots automaticaly! Thanks to all!

 SET BOOT DKA300: #set standard boot device
 SET BFLG 0  #set R5 to 0 - That`s the missing trick!


SET HAPPY = 1 ;-)

Hello list!

I try to autoboot my Vaxstation 4000/60.
The reason is that i want to drive the vax headless.
I have set Disk DKA300 as boot hdd in console mode.
I SET HALT 2 ( reboot).

In this configutarion the system starts into SYSBOOT.
There i have to give the command CONTINUE to boot VMS.
Is there any way to overide then CONTINUE command?


In addition to HALT, you also have BOOT and BFLG. I can't remember 
which is what right now, but one of them is what R5 gets set to in 
this case, and you need it to be 0.

It sounds like your system defaults to a conversational boot which is, as
far as I recall, set by setting the least significant bit in register 5

 boot /r5=1

Usually, unless you are booting stand alone backup or are a cluster member,
the machine should boot with register 5 set to 0 and you only set it to 1
if you want to do a conversational boot.

If you mean boot directly so that you don't have to CONTINUE:

From the  prompt

 set boot_osflags 0,0

 boot/1 DKA300:

Let me know if that does not work, recalling from memory...
