5steps to bootstap a system.
6
71) Load kernel and mini-root into memory with one of the PROM commands.
8   This is the only step that depends on what type of machine you are using.
9   The 'cnfg' PROM command will display what devices are avaliable
10   (DEC 5000 only).
11   The 'm' argument tells the kernel to look for a mini-root in memory.

13	DEC 3100:	boot -f tz(0,5,0) m	# 5 is the SCSI id of the TK50
14	DEC 5000:	boot 5/tz6 m		# 6 is the SCSI id of the TK50
15	DEC 5000:	boot 6/tftp/bootfile m	# requires bootp on host
16
172) Format the disk if needed. Most SCSI disks are already formatted.
18	format
19
203) Label disks and create file systems.
21	# disklabel -W /dev/rrz?c		# This enables writing the label
22	# disklabel -w -r -B /dev/rrz?c $DISKTYPE
23	# newfs /dev/rrz?a
24	# newfs /dev/rrz?g
25	...
26	# fsck /dev/rrz?a
27	# fsck /dev/rrz?g
28	...
29
30	Supported disk types are listed in /etc/disktab.
31	Feel free to add to this list.
32
334) Restore / and /usr partitions.
34	# mount -u /
35	# mount /dev/rz?a /a
36	# mount /dev/rz?g /b
37	# cd /a
38	# mt -f /dev/nrmt0 rew
39	# restore -rsf 2 /dev/rmt0
40	# cd /b
41	# {change tapes or tape drive}
42	# restore -rf /dev/rmt0
43	# cd /
44	# sync
45	# umount /a /b
46	# fsck /dev/rz?a /dev/rz?g
47
485) Initialize the PROM monitor to boot automatically.
49	# halt -q
50
51	DEC 3100:	setenv bootpath boot -f rz(0,?,0)vmunix
52	DEC 5000:	setenv bootpath 5/rz?/vmunix -a
53
546) After booting UNIX, you will need to create /dev/mouse in order to
55   run X windows. type `link /dev/xx /dev/mouse' where xx is one of the
56   following:
57	pm0	raw interface to PMAX graphics devices
58	cfb0	raw interface to turbochannel PMAG-BA color frame buffer
59	xcfb0	raw interface to maxine graphics devices
60	mfb0	raw interface to mono graphics devices
