Not only was the RX33 not supported until 5.04, there's a bug in the 
MSCP DU driver that wasn't fixed until 5.03 (IIRC) or maybe 5.04, which 
means nothing on an RQDX3 can be guaranteed to work properly before 
that.  It caused me a lot of grief, way back in 1994.
See the files at http://www.dunnington.info/public/RQDX/ and 
particularly http://www.dunnington.info/public/RQDX/DUX.TXT if you're 
interested.
