      The purpose of this micronote is to  provide  a  comprehensive  list  of
      Q-Bus hardware bootstraps and the devices they support.

      The tables on the next two pages are organized as follows.  There	 is  a
      row  for	each  of the currently supported bootable devices.  There is a
      column for each hardware bootstrap.  The columns span  both  pages.   In
      the  heading  for	 each bootstrap will be found any ordering information
      and/or references to notes which follow  the  tables.   When  two	 order
      numbers  are  given, both must be ordered since the boot code is divided
      into high byte and low byte ROMs.


      The bootstrap devices listed are:

			NOTES:
			------

	(1)	The information in the BDV11 column refers to the Rev A
		chips.	There were also Rev O chips and an additional TU58
		chip that can be added to the board:

		Rev O:

			Part numbers 23-010E2, 23-011E2

			Does NOT support:
				DLV11-F, RX02 as bootable devices


		TU58 ROM:

			Part number 23-126F3

			Inserted into socket XE40.  Other ROM must be
			Rev A.	Allows use of the TU58 DECtape II as
			a bootable device.


	(2)	The MXV11-B2 Bootstrap ROMs can be used with the MXV11-BF
		multifunction module as well as the MRV11-D ROM module.
		It will not work with the MXV11-A module.



	(3)	The RC25 adapter board must be configured at the the DEC
		standard base address for the first MSCP controller
		(772150).  Other MSCP controllers may also reside but
		may not be booted.
