The pcs750.bin that comes with 4.3BSD is *not necessarily* the right microcode to load on all 750's. If you have been standalone-loading microcode with the DEC diagnostic monitor, that microcode patch is likely to be the right code. Replace pcs750.bin with the DEC microcode. -- Ed Gould mt Xinu, 2560 Ninth St., Berkeley, CA 94710 USA {ucbvax,decvax}!mtxinu!ed +1 415 644 0146 "A man of quality is not threatened by a woman of equality."
