Sounds like they're saying that the DELQA just does a BINIT and then it's up to the boot ROM to figure out what happens after that. Read through more stuff, and apart from the fact that the DELQA also provide boot code for the PDP-11 (albeit in a different way than the Unibus ones), it actually pulls the BDCOK, to it simulates a power fail. And then the host is supposed to request the DELQA to dump the boot code into memory, and then jump into it by itself. Johnny
