I did. Thats why I asked. And it seemed like a good way
to troll for activity. Just wanted to announce my arrival
on the list. And since this is netbsd/vax, my contribution
on the hardware side is a VAXstation 4000/60 with 40Mb Ram.
dmesg output follows.

Seems like this model requires some sort of user input to boot
if running via vt terminal (here: vt510) when S1 is up, and
without it the VAX halts at the prompt since there is no keyboard.
It's a shame really, i don't want the vt510 visible all the time.
This is not a question, it's a statement.
