The third piece of old VAX pieces I have here is a VT1300 without
monitor (which is broken, and the vT1300 refuses, according to our
technician, to talk to any other monitor).
So, I decided I could just blindly boot it and see what it does to the
network. Here is moptrace -a output:

Can I tell it something which would make it boot, say, NetBSD over the
net? It has two seiral ports, if I look right... could make a PPP
leased line router :-)
