I thought I had made a simple request when I asked my local DEC-salesman-type
(not actually a DEC employee) to give me a quote on a VAXstation 3100 with
both Ultrix and VMS.  This has now turned into the quote from hell!  My
question is:
	Can I configure an Ultrix/VMS system on 1 stand-alone 3100?
	If so, how so?

I have been told everything from "no" to "no sweat" to "well you leave the
internal hard disk as scratch and hook 2 300+ MB drives up and turn off the
one you don't want to boot...."


Can anyone help?

Email or news replies appreciated wholeheartedly!
