TFTP is broken on some versions of VXT2000+.  But, I just got two new
MicroVAX 3400 machines - unfortunately I can't get them to speak to
the console.  I'm using a home-brew cable which has DEC MMJ connectors
on both ends - the pin-out is the usual (1->6, 2->5 etc).  The thing
seems to start up just fine, but nothing is printed to console.  What
should I try next?
