Installing to DEC Alpha

I'm not sure if this is appropriate for misc@, but here goes. I've done the regular research, but I'm sure I'm missing something so if anyone can point me to an appropriate guide I'd greatly appreciate it.

I recently acquired a DEC Personal Workstation 433au (Alpha 26114@433Mhz?) that had an old copy of DEC UNIX on it. I have a (purchased, btw) copy of OpenBSD 3.1 that I believe SHOULD boot the machine, but I've never worked with Alpha machines and can't figure out how to get it to boot from CD and start the installation. I suppose there's something I need to do (perhaps similar to booting on a Sun machine?) to make it boot from CD, but can't figure that out.
Thanks in advance!
