Hi Ben!

A niggle: the 5000/1xx is a KN02-BA. Not really the same as a kn02
(which is the 5000/200).  For console variables that control booting
it doesn't matter, but the scsi controller is 3, not 5....

from memory (could be wrong):

poweraction.  b to boot,  (for halt), t (for tests or extended tests),
