Alright. I'll hunt for that.

have heard it supports some extra stuff.
We'd have to look at the BOOT source (BOOT.MAC) for that.
FDDI? Not on the Toad-1, certainly. Toad-1 systems comprise 4 board types:
XKL-1 CPU, XNI-1 10baseT Ethernet, XRH-1 "FASTWIDE" differential SCSI-2, and
XMG-1 32MW memory. The XNI-1 looks to the monitor like 4x Cisco MEIS cards
(derived from the Stanford interface of the same name), not a DEC NIA-20.
Thanks - that's a useful starting point.
There are PDFs of the Toad-1 System Installation
manual and the Toad-1
Architecture Reference available via anonymous FTP from
toad2a.livingcomputermuseum.org (change directory to PS:<DOCUMENTATION.TOAD>,
ignore the warning about sending a password). XKL did not ship monitor source
with the system, nor was it available for purchase separately.
Ahh - unfortunate. :(
Thanks! That's helpful...except:
Remote system type is TOPS20.
Remember to set tenex mode when transferring binary files from this
machine.
