Getting Started
Preloaded Operating System Software
If you ordered a DEC OSF/1 or OpenVMS version of the AlphaStation 400 Series system,
your operating system came preloaded. If you ordered a Microsoft Windows NT
Workstation version, the operating system is not preloaded. Disk 0 on the first SCSI bus,
however, is partitioned and formatted so that you can immediately install the operating
system.
Depending on how the environment variables are set, your system shows one of the
operating system-specific displays discussed next, after the self tests have completed
successfully.

For more information on environment variables, see Appendix A, Console
Commands.
Microsoft Windows NT Workstation
If you ordered a system with the Microsoft Windows NT Workstation operating system,
you will see the following display after power-on and initialization:
ARC Multiboot Alpha AXP Version 3.5-13

Use the arrow keys to select, then press Enter.
If autoboot is enabled, a countdown timer (default 10 seconds) is displayed. Booting
occurs when the timer expires.
DEC OSF/1
If you are using the DEC OSF/1 operating system, you see either a >>> prompt (if
auto_action is set to Halt) or the system proceeds to boot DEC OSF/1 (if auto_action is set
to Boot) when you power on your system.
