IIRC [I worked alot more on 11-M than on M-Plus... and it was over 15 years ago...].....

While the startup script is running you should be ablse to press Ctrl-C to abort it. If the sys manager did not put in good error handlers, it will leave you at an MCR prompt....A cleaner alternative is to enter Ctrl-Z when prompted for the date and time during startup....RMMV
