Re: Original Motorola MVME 167 PROM

["Jiro Fujita" <jiro.fujita@gmail.com>]

I am looking for Motorola 167 bug PROM chips.
After reading your reply, I went back to the cabinet where I found the
U2 chip, and found the U1 chip in the same place as where I found the
U2 chip (I had a recollection of seeing two chips there earlier
today).
This actually makes sense, as we always had to install two VxWorks
PROMs.  So, how can the Motorola PROMs be any different??
Anyway, I have contacted somebody at NSLS who might be able to help me
out here, so let's see how it goes.
