 It was pretty many years ago by now, but I did try to boot a SCSI CD-ROM
drive with the 512 byte jumper, and it didn't work.  Instead I copied the whole
file to a SCSI disk drive raw device, and booted that.

So I don't know why it didn't work.

Anyone working on these machines should have at least a few SCSI disks,
or adapters to newer SCSI disks. 

I first loaded NetBSD onto it, and then VMS.  I don't remember more details.
