1. Please add me to the list.

2. Re: xp handlers in 8.2bsd applied to rm02 disks.
Note that RM02 disks place 025 in RMDT, hence the patching suggested
on page 6 will be necessary as the xp driver chokes otherwise. I guess
this is more a documentation weakness than a bug since a very careful
reading and/or experience might  make you recognize the boot failure as
due to this.

3. Are there any known bugs in the distribution of the RL drivers. Both
when I try to boot rlunix from the standalone or when i touch my RL01
from a running xpunix, system panics. Does it correctly distinguish
RL01 from RL02 (driver code sure looks ok to me)?
