1) the console rom does not go in any of the 4
bootstrap slots, these
should be empty for now. There is a special console rom slot.
Just to clarify, by "slot", you don't mean 'backplane slot', you
mean 'socket
(on the card)', right?
Also, note that the console/diagnostic ROM is a different size (bit-wise; I'm
not sure about the physical package) from the bootstrap ROMs.
6) possibly the only switch to worry about now is the
power on auto
jump to console switch.
I'd leave that, too, until we get the software console to run when started
manually - at the moment, the ROM's not working, so that switch is irrelevant.
