I dug out my RX50s that are with the 8200... I found: Copy of BL-FG80P-ME "VAX 8200 UTIL PROG FLP" Copy of "VAX 8200 uCODE / CPU REV 5, patch 21" Copy of "VAX 8200 uCODE / CPU REV 4, patch 29" Original label BL-FG81F-ME "VAX 8200/8300 Console FLP" (but I won't swear the contents are 100% original. It's probable that some files were added or edited). IIRC, I made copies of the uCODE from each CPU I had before overwriting the REV 4 board with REV 5. This was approx 25 years ago, but not obliterating the old data before overwriting it is something I definitely would have done. The point was to get them the same so they would work together, and I wouldn't have cared which way it went as long as it worked. I have a number of ways to read RX50s, but nothing is presently set up and plugged in for that. I'll have to dust something off and get it going. -ethan _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
