44interface
45.Sh DESCRIPTION
46This is a simple interface to the
47.Tn DEC
48.Tn RL Ns 02
49disk unit which is part of the console
50subsystem on the
51.Tn VAX-8600
52and 8650.
53Access is given to the entire
54.Tn RL Ns 02
55disk; the pack format is the same
56as that of
57.Tn RL Ns 02
58disks on other controllers.
59As on other
60.Tn VAX
61console media, transfers are done a word at a time
62using privileged registers (i.e., slowly).
63.Pp
64All
65.Tn I/O
66is raw; the seek addresses in raw transfers should be a multiple
67of 512 bytes and a multiple of 512 bytes should be transferred,
68as in other
69.Dq raw
70disk interfaces.
71(Although the sector size is actually 256 bytes, the driver allows
72operations only on 512-byte boundaries.)
