Any thoughts here Ragge? Is anyone booting this kernel with the monitor/
keyboard head?

I just set up NFS root using RARP/MOP/BOOTPARAMS. Same exact results --
all the other kernels boot just fine, but this SCSI DMA kernel bails
immediately after reporting the load sizes with the
85 RESTART SYS
I'm so hungry for the SCSI DMA I can taste it, but it still eludes :D
We'll try the vaxboot.SYS. Probably won't effect a change, but it is
the last thing I can check.
