Re: PWS 500AU won't boot Tru64 CD

The fact that VMS is able to boot from the CDROM drive pretty much
rules out configuration error, I think. All I can think of is, as said
before, media damage. Assuming this is the case, what should I do? Do I
have any option but to pay HP $100 for a replacement CD?
