The "@" is the bootstrap prompt, and the first "boot" is what you
type.
The second "boot" is from the boot program itself; the colon ":" is
boot's
prompt. "rl(0,0)" is what you type to name the device, unit, and
partition, and "unix" is the kernel name. YMMV if you have a different
kernel. BTW, to shut down an old system like this, you should (as root)
type
# kill -1 1
to stop user processes and return to single-user mode; then type "sync" a
couple of times, to make sure any disk buffers are written out, and then
stop the processor.
