| 150b0910 | 10 | fl \- console floppy interface |
| e4e41f2a | 11 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 150b0910 | 12 | This is a simple interface to the DEC RX01 |
| e4e41f2a KM |
13 | floppy disk unit, which is part of the console |
| 14 | LSI-11 subsytem for VAX-11/780's. | |
| 15 | Access is given to the entire | |
| 16 | floppy consisting of 77 tracks of 26 sectors of 128 bytes. | |
| 17 | .PP | |
| 18 | All i/o is raw; the seek addresses in raw transfers should be a multiple | |
| 19 | of 128 bytes and a multiple of 128 bytes should be transferred, | |
| 20 | as in other ``raw'' disk interfaces. | |

| 31 | the trailing portion of the last sector will be zeroed. |
