   We have just received a new DecStation 5000/200 px. This is our
   first Ultrix (or Unix for that matter) machine, so please be 
   kind in your response.  It doesn't help that our documentation
   has not yet arrived! (we do have the small installation book)

   We installed the distribution tape using the advanced installation.
   We selected almost all the options (no system execiser or enhanced
   security) and everything proceeded with no apparent problems until
   the very end when we get a login prompt. The manual says we should
   see the login prompt screen (I assume the one with the big DIGITAL
   logo on it) but we just get a non window prompt. When we login
   everything seems to be there, except we don't know how to get
   the window manager running. Any advice will be appreciated.

For the 200PX the server won't work unless ou install the mandatory
upgrade tape and rebuild the kernel.  There should be a little
booklet describing this process.
