I remember seeing the ROM patches for SCSI booting some time ago, but they
required a VMS system to apply the patch.  Does someone have the patch in
another format?  Or can someone provide a complete, patched ROM image for the
VS2k?

I have an EPROM burner and could either dump out & patch my existing ROMs, or
burn a new image, if it were available.

thanks,
Jonathan
