I was going to post a message asking for an explination of what the boot screen displays.... 
This just about answers it all.

Thanks Chris

Gene:

	According to the boot explaination (attached w/ unix EOLs), It
looks like it can't open the console.

i means is about to link to the Init module
2 means krnp2 has started
x means it is about to chd to the system device
(t is printed because F$Boot was called again)
o means it is about to open the console 
* means an error occured (in this case, couldn't open the console)
