The Question is: I'm booting a AlphaStation 200 4/100 for the first time into VMS as a satellite. I get the VMS banner, then some mumbling about circuits to my boot node, then the message: %EWA0, BNC(10base2) mode set by console and that's where it sits ... forever! I have booted this thing a looooong time ago into VMS, so I know it can work. It's been running Linux for the past year, and the NIC seems to be working fine! The Answer is : Check the cluster password and cluster group number, check the console on the boot server for any messages, check for errors logged on the boot/disk server, check the SCSSYSTEMID and SCSNODE settings (these must be unique across all nodes, and values cannot be reused once a pairing is used without a cluster reboot), check the settings of the host and controller allocation classes (if serving an SCS-served device via an OpenVMS host, a non-zero value that matches the SCS allocation class value used on the SCS controller is used), and check the cluster troubleshooting information in: http://caedmon.zko.dec.com/72final/4477/4477pro_023.html#ci_appendix
