- Summary: Can I make it boot/run without a console terminal?

- I've finally gotten to the point where I have exhausted the CPU
- power of my 3B2/400. I am looking into getting a junker 3B2/310 as a
- networked batch processor. However, I don't have the space for
- another terminal to act as console.
-
- This machine will probably be ethernetted to my main machine. Is
- there any way to make the machine boot in an unattended manner? I
- seem to recall that it needs a live terminal on /dev/console to let
- it boot. Any way to get around this?

- Or: Anyone wanna swap a 3B2/600 for my /400? :-)
