I have set a default boot device, so that at the console prompt I only need to type 'boot', but it won't autoboot. This is a pain as I am trying to set up for unattended operation.

This seems to work for me: (end of config file, with set cpu conhalt in 
effect)

; Boot
; all deposits in hex for VAX, set BDR<7>=1 or 0
; no autoboot:
; deposit BDR 80
; autoboot:
deposit BDR 00
boot cpu
