  Ethan,
 the "-flags" option of the "boot" command takes _one_or_two_

 as an argument... 
Thanks for the clarification.  I'm used to the older /R5:00000000...
method.
  BTW: If dkc0 is set as your default boot device
(bootdef_dev), you
 should be able to just "b" into normal (multiuser) operating mode, or "b
 -fl 1" if you need something special. 
It is not.  'b' by itself referenced a disk array that is no longer
attached to this machine (I got it from surplus and I appear to have
gotten the CPU cabinet but not an expansion cabinet).  I have two
trays of RZ26s (3 each), one RZ73 and one tray with no power converter,
just a 50-pin blue-ribbon SCSI-1 connector for attachment to the
"missing" 6 drives (according to the logs I've been perusing).
When 'b' didn't work, I just started booting the first drive on
every shelf until it came up... third time's the charm in this case.
Thanks for the exposition on flags.
