Ok, I've changed this to

*(int *)vax_map_physmem(0x201ffffc,1)=(int)(0xf-7)<<16;
(it is as 32bit register defined in the docs).

...but this wouldn't work also. The last Number I can see is before that
mtpr(1, PR_MAPEN); in pmap.c around line 460.

If I comment out my rty to display something after that PR_MAPEN
and I set dep_call to ka650 this thing is running in deep loop
after booting, I have to reset the board to boot again.

locore.c:
#if RTVAX300 || VAXANY
        case VAX_BTYP_RT300:
                dep_call = &ka650_calls;
                strcat(cpu_model, "RTVAX");
/* Diplay '1' on TIL311 */
                *(int *)(0x201ffffc)=(0xf-1)<<16;
                break;
#endif

with ka43_calls I get a Trap:

 ?04 ISP ERR
    PC = 800002BC
 83 BOOT SYS

       0x800002bc                Xtransl_v
...Translation invalid or something..

n both cases I don't knwo what the machine is doing, I wish
the ability to trace that with the LED display, so what could be wrong with
that vax_map_physmem() call?

Holm
