1847674Scael.Sh DESCRIPTION
1947674ScaelThis is a simple interface to the
2047674Scael.Tn DEC
2147674Scael.Tn RL Ns 02
2228287Skarelsdisk unit which is part of the console
2347674Scaelsubsystem on the
2447674Scael.Tn VAX
2547674Scael8600 and 8650.
2628287SkarelsAccess is given to the entire
2747674Scael.Tn RL Ns 02
2847674Scaeldisk; the pack format is the same
2947674Scaelas that of
3047674Scael.Tn RL Ns 02
3147674Scaeldisks on other controllers.
3247674ScaelAs on other
3347674Scael.Tn VAX
3447674Scaelconsole media, transfers are done a word at a time
3528287Skarelsusing privileged registers (i.e., slowly).

3947674Scaelis raw; the seek addresses in raw transfers should be a multiple

4247674Scael.Dq raw
4347674Scaeldisk interfaces.

4528287Skarelsoperations only on 512-byte boundaries.)
