Re: Unidentified subject!
I believe that VT-300 uses EB164.
Then you can boot it with EB164 rescue disk.
But be careful, the one in the frozen directory did not work
for me. It claim for the multiple possibility when I typed boot fd:...
I got recent file from some other place, and it worked.
I hope it can help you.

Unfortunately, the only information of VT-alpha I found was in
Japanese which I can't read. It is likely these computers are based on
some standard motherboards from digital, but we have to know which one
to find the determine the appropriate disks.
Are you using AlphaBIOS or ARC or the SRM console? Is there any
message in the BIOS you are using that could help identify the type of
motherboard, (maybe checks for PC64, PC164, EB164, or something like
that)?
If our computer is 300Mhz as the name may implied, it may be a
AlphaPC64 motherboard, in this case you can try the "cabriolet" set.

Loic
