Hello again,
   I have thankful you are out there.   I have restored my system from Alpha2100 to ES40.  Restoring root and /usr by booting from the CDROM and mounting under /mnt and restoring.  I had to edit the disklabel, in an ascii file, and used disklabel -R -t ufs /dev/disk/dsk0c SWXCR /mnt/jane.disk
did newfs /dev/disk/dsk0a SWCXR
    newfs /dev/disk/dsk0g SWXCR
disklabel -W /dev/disk/dsk0c   (to make writeabel)
..then restored...  now I cannot boot .  Things look good ,states disc had bootable parition,
(using  boot dra0 -fl s).   Then when it gets to 
Starting secondary CPU 1  it hangs for quite awhile and then the error is
P00>>> **Error eia0.0.0.6.1 TX timeout index 2, cboolab640, sem 001abbb28, actie 3
