If the saveset restoration and the complex bootstrap both fail, suggest you
investigate the following.
1) Make sure the SCSI bus that is used by the CD-ROM has proper termination and
termination power.
2) Create/obtain a new image CD. Your image may be corruption or the CD-ROM
may have

Did you ever actually read the full ISE Users Guide manual? Check page
3-7 to 3-12. There you actually have the manual talk about both the
software write protect and the hardware write protect.

I checked out your SNOBOL4 page and I just wanted to note for your list of

It probably is not this, but maybe you can try it.
For a while HP servers had the extremely annoying property of the
boot being rate-limited by the serial console speed if you had been
unfortunate enough to enable it by default. You would not notice
anything other than the slowness on a video

If anyone is interested, I have code for a Linux SCSI tape to AWSTAPE

Not sure if I have one that translates to the SimH .tap format, though.

Did you say that the slow boot problem that you were having was a
machine with ISA?
Would it make sense to put in a POST card, and make a new [temporary] BIOS
with its POST peppered with OUTs? Just seeing any output that would let
you know WHERE in the process it was getting bogged down
