  Personal Workstation Failsafe Loader? 
 The Question is:
 
Is there a way to invoke a failsafe firmware
loader on a PWS 433au?
 
 
 The Answer is :
 
  You will require information described in the FAQ, and will require
  the creation of a firmware floppy for the system.
 
       $ set file/attr=(rfm:fix,lrl:512,mrs:512,rat:none) fwupdate.exe
       $ init/dens=HD/index=begin dva0: fwupdate
       $ mount dva0: fwupdate
       $ create/dir dva0:[digitalpw]
       $ copy/contiguous fwupdate.exe dva0:[digitalpw]
       $ mcr writeboot
         Update VAX portion of boot block (default is Y) : No
         Update AXP portion of boot block (default is Y) : Yes
         [enter AXP bootfile:] dva0:[digitalpw]fwupdate.exe
       $ dismount dva0:
 
  When loaded in the drive during power up, this will start up the
  firmware update tool.
 
  Please see the FAQ, and documentation and files cited in the FAQ.
