464.0. "WNT...Hit any key to continue" by FOUNDR::TOMASWICK (Joe - Enterprise Systems Engineering) Mon Feb 03 1997 15:07

	I have a similar problem as 58.5 with WNT.
 
      From the boot page, when the autotimed finished, or when <enter> was
        hit, the screen blanked, but instead of the OSLOADER message the
        message was "Hit any key to continue".

	This was a system that had been running UNIX. I tried to run setenv as
suggested but it can't find the file. This system is running ALPHABIOS 5.24.
Where does setenv reside? How can I run it with 5.24?

464.1setenv works on older FWFOUNDR::TOMASWICKJoe - Enterprise Systems EngineeringTue Feb 04 1997 10:479
	I backed off to the previous version of the firmware and setenv worked.
I was able to set CONSOLEIN & CONSOLEOUT as suggested. WNT then booted
OK.

464.2How do we fix this one now???BRUNEL::KIRBYThu Apr 03 1997 13:006
I had the same problem .... also had to back down to 5.21.

How do we solve this on current versions of Alphabios as currently shipping?
