I can't find out the reasonable MOD group for this question. However, I thought there might be a lot of experts on DEQNA around this groupe. So, I post this question. We are trying to boot DEQNA (Ethernet interface on Q-BUS) on LSI-11/73 RT-11. We wrote a test program to read BDROM (Boot/Diagnostic ROM) on DEQNA board in vain. This is very complicated work, because the ROM is transfered like a packet arriving from other node. We have a poor documentaion about DEQNA. DEC Japan has not ever experienced to install DEQNA from the begining. So, It's hard to get information and know-how from DEC Japan. Our DEQNA's version is C1. In order to read BDROM, we made a tentative program. For reference, the program is attached here. If there is any incorrection in the program, please suggest me. Thanks in advance.
