Awesome.  I'm so glad to finally see this port working after so long.  Gr=

job!

One other thing I'd like to see tackled at some point is this:

Boot: Loading in()
2450540+108504 [159648+155056]=3D0x2bdd88
start=3D0x3100

It would be ideal if we could get the start address up to 0x100000 like t=
he
other OEA ports.  (I would like to use the space between 0x3000 and 0x100=
000
for millicode stuff eventually)

I have some thoughts on how to do this, if you need help.  A good place t=
o
start is the self-relocation code in the prep bootloader.
