Yes. On every DEC drive I own (and I guess most
others), track 0 is at
the outside edge of the disk and the highest track is closest to the
spindle. Allison/Tim will now post a list of exceptions :-)
Only exception I know of is CD-ROM, which doesn't exactly have tracks,
but at least block 0 is on the inside and the higher-number blocks
are on the outside.
Halt the processor after the failed boot attempt, key
in the first
address of the RK611 (I can't remember it, but you have the RK07 user
manual, don't you?)
777440 through 777456.
