Hi all,

My father-in-law just dropped an AlphaServer 1000A by the
house that he wants me to install FreeBSD on.  Question is
how do I get it to drop to the console?  I've downloaded
the firmware update from DEC, put it on a DOS floppy, and
named the file fwupdate.exe but the box insists on booting
from dka0 and into OpenVMS despite my best efforts.

Thanks for any and all enlightenment.
