Makes a huge difference when you put the board in the right way around :&)
You'd have thought DEC would have thought of making the connectors
non-symetrical.

For reference purposes, with the extra 4M, the boot time has dropped from
approx 4 hours (I didn't have the patience to time it properly) with getty
dying at the end to 1:42 (from swapctl and fsck, to the date before
starting getty), and that's in min:sec :&)

WOOHOO! I have a working NetBSD/vax system to play with now :&)

Beer for all those who can make to Manchester, UK *grin*

Bye for now,

       Matt
