This sounds like a great idea.  However, I wonder how many pmax users
have CD-ROM drives that use (or can be frobbed to use) 512-byte blocks.

AFAIK (and Ted may know more than I do), pmaxes can *use* standard
2048-byte block CD-roms, but they can only boot off drives that use
512-byte blocks.

Without such a drive, you're still stuck getting some usable boot
media.  Who out there (MAXINE owners aside) has a floppy drive on
their DECstation?
