812.0. "5.1 SDC upgrade woes..." by 16580::HAACK () Mon May 22 1989 13:42

    Hate to do this but I can't find an answer to a "simple" problem.
    
    I am installing 5.1 VMS SDC version on top of 5.1 FT.
    
    I have a VS2000.  
    5.1 says the following when I try @vmsinstal
    		"System must be booted MIN"   so I do so
    			(you know  BOOT/1 
    				   Set startup_p1 "MIN")             
    
    		Now It can't see MUA0 to get to the 5.1 kit.	
                      
    Any one upgraded to 5.1 have a suggestion on this.
    
    Thanks
    Dave
    
    (My goal is then to transfer from my VS2000 to a 3100 without needed
    to reinstall all the layered products)

You can do

	mcr sysgen auto all

which I suspect is overkill but it beats trying to figure out all the
strange names by which sysgen knows the pieces of your hardware, which
is what you need otherwise.

    Thanks much.
    
    Being a limited VMS person I translated your reply to be 	
    	"mcr sysgen auto all" AFTER I come up in MIN
    
    Thanks for ending this frustration.
