I'll note that the W8 setting described on page A-2 seems to conflict with
the description earlier in the manual (See section 2.8.3) which indicates
it's only necessary for it to be IN if there is an address conflict (which
is probably not the case). Leave W8 OUT. (Leaving W8 in will disable the
console PROM). Sorry for the confusion...

uni-stuttgart.de/pdf/dec/unibus/M9312_TechRef.pdf (page A-2) suggests
that W8 should be IN.
Can you describe how your system is configured (i.e. what's on the bus,
what's in the CPU, etc?).
Have you double-checked that the interrupt vectors for your SLUs are
correctly configured? The console (and BASIC, IIRC) does not use
interrupts for serial I/O and will work if the vector is misconfigured (I
discovered this the hard way in my 11/05) but other things will not and
will behave badly.
I'd also suggest using PDP11GUI to load in diagnostics directly, this
avoids needing to be able to boot XXDP...

2) Yes or no - Should W8 be in for am 11 40/25/10/05 or is the /40
special?
TYPO - I mean "11 40/35/10/05" or is the /40 special?
