I have a stand-alone alpha 433 running openvms axp v 7.1. A recent power outage forced an un-orderly shutdown. I had a floppy and a cd inserted (non-system); and all was fine with the alpha before the outage.

When I tried to reboot I did get the usual screen with

ea.e9.e8.e7.e6.e5.e4
Digital Personal Workstation...
>>>

But when I typed >>>b

I only got "(boot dka 0.0.0.1004.0 -flags 0,0)" and nothing! The system does not reboot.

What to do?

Many thanks in advance.
