Re:  booting from RL's
I don't have a machine to prove it on, but I think all you need to do
is remove the 8 word header from the front of the a.out and change the
line 247 from:
       mov     $.256,(r1)      / set the word count
---to----
       mov     $.WC,(r1)

The bootstrap is too long by this amount.

       Bill.

Please respond if you have trouble. And yes virginia, rl01's have a vector
at 160 not 330.
