Martin,
I believe that you would use
setenv haltaction b
However, you can find some on-line documentation on gatekeeper under:
gateeeper:pub/DEC/DS5000_boot_commands.ps
DS5000_newboot_stuff.tar
DS5000_console_command_comparison.ps
UWS_boot_commands_DS5000.ps
That should have everything you need.
I hope that helps.
Thanx,
AJ
