 This came in handy for me too when I went the route of messed up MAXUSERS 
 screwage.  
 	That'll do it too ;)

   Fortunately /vmunix & /oldvmunix is a familiar procedure from back in
 my PMAX device driver hacking days.

     On
another note, were there any SCSI adapters that made use of the BA23/
 BA123 RD disk control buttons?  Would be nifty to swap in a new ra0 by
 simply taking a disk offline/online.  
 	Hmmm, those buttons/cabling are for RD/MSCP devices - not sure if it's
 	possible to use them with SCSI devices.

   I was thinking of a SCSI adapter that plugged into the bulkhead somehow.
 This is plainly rediculous, but a nifty idea nontheless. 
You could put your SCSI drive into one of those pull-out
"mobile adapter" things.  But you probably should not pull
it out without idling the SCSI bus first.
