I am afraid that there is only one solution in this configuration:
Typing in the bootstrap via ODT at startup. I do this with my 11/73, 
because I don't have a ROM card. But a ROM card is no solution for you, 
as you don't have a free slot. I connected the console line of the PDP
to a serial port of a PeeCee, so I can use a minicom script to type in the 
bootstrap.
