Problem: DISABLE AUTOMATIC-STARTUP leaves garbage in the home-blocks.
Diagnosis: HOMSER gets garbage instead of the zero it should because
a SKIPN is loading the wrong register.
Solution: Fix it. Change SKIPN T1,ENAFLG to SKIPN T2,ENAFLG
at .autos+6.

Maintenance-release: No Hardware-related: No
Program: CHECKD
Related-QAR: 706418
Problem: The error message " %Error building bat blocks, write aborted "
is not very descriptive.
Diagnosis: Error message written that way.
Solution: Change the error message to indicate that the BAT BLOCK
was not written and that the probable cause is too many entries
to add.

Maintenance-release: No Hardware-related: No
Program: MONSYM
Problem: The SOURCE ETHERNET ADDRESS field (BXSAD) in the NI% JSYS'
Buffer Descriptor Field is only one word long. It needs to be two words
long to accomadate the address.
Diagnosis: Make the field two words long.
Solution: The value of BXSAD is 11 (octal). Change the value of BXPRO
from 12 to 13 and change the value of BXBMX from 13 to 14.

Program: SETSPD
Problem: There is no way to set the DECnet area number
Diagnosis: Not needed before

TCO-number: 6.1.1034
Written-by: TBOYLE Creation-date: 6-Nov-84 19:37:00

Edit-checked: No Document: No TCO-tested: No
Maintenance-release: No Hardware-related: No
Program: SETSPD
Routines-affected: SETSPD STG SYSERR
Problem:
SETSPD is unable to read SYSERR blocks out of extended spaces
from a dump.
Diagnosis:
The code only used MMAP and hence could only read out of section 0.
Solution:
Make changes to DMPRED, DMPMAP, and add MAPSEC to allow SETSPD
to grobble through the SPT and MSECTB so that it can read out of sections
other than zero.
DMPRED will now accept a page address that includes the section
number. It will map a new section map if necessary. As before, only
direct pointers are supported. Instead of using a lowcore address in
the dump to point to MMAP, it will look at SPTWD and MSCWD to find
pointers to the SPT and MSECTB. READIT is a utility routine to fetch
a word out of the dump while applying EXE format indirection. MAPSEC
will use READIT to grovel through the tables.
Also change SYSERR.MAC to re-enable ALCSBX to allocate
SYSERR blocks in extended space. Also reduce size of free space
.RESGQ from 6000 to 1400. This saves about 5 pages.
