AutoRestart/iX is a product. Many of the benefits of AutoRestart can be had
without purchasing the product. But you have to understand how they made
the product to obtain most of the benefit without purchasing the product.
The Format utility does nothing but add a Cr at the end of the line. Here's
how to do it in EDITOR...
:editor
HP32201A.09.00 EDIT/3000 FRI, MAY 25, 2007, 3:10 AM
(C) HEWLETT-PACKARD CO. 1993
/a
1 START -R NORECOVERY^^
2 //
...
/c "^" to '10 in all
1 START -R NORECOVERY
/k AUTOBOOT.MPEXL.SYS,unn
You will still have to create the SLT and UPDATE from it.

Thanks everyone!
Apparently, this HP3000 doesn't have the FORMAT.HP36375.TELESUP program, the
HP36375.TELESUP group exists, but it is empty. Maybe I need to start going
through my old tapes.
Does anyone care to post a FCOPY;HEX dump of the file that the
SYSGEN-->SY-->aauto points to, the same file that FORMAT.HP36375.TELESUP
would output. Having the output in hex, maybe I could write my own version
of FORMAT.HP36375.TELESUP
OR:
Could it be that I am missing a product/subsys?
Is this an add on product?
I wouldn't want to ask anyone to do anything illegal ;-|
