2.20 Running the AlphaBIOS Console
AlphaBIOS is the graphical interface that supports utility
programs.
NOTE: AlphaBIOS contains features and menus that support multiple
operating systems. The Windows NT operating system is not supported
on Compaq AlphaServer DS10/DS10L and AlphaStation DS10
systems. Only the AlphaBIOS features applicable to the Tru64 UNIX
and OpenVMS operating systems are discussed in this section.
After switching to AlphaBIOS, you will see the following screens.
