It sounds like you havn't been able to get the tape moving yet. I don't
have the manuals here to help you with that. I do however seem to remember
that vax:en boot from the second file on the tape which should be a
512-byte-sectored bootblock. I think the first one is reserved for an ANSI
tape label. Perhaps I confuse some pdp:s with vaxen. :-)
