FIXED:  a documentation bug affecting RM02 disks
	Re: xp handlers in 2.8bsd applied to rm02 disks.
	Note that RM02 disks place 025 in RMDT, hence the patching suggested on
	page 6 will be necessary as the xp driver chokes otherwise. I guess
	this is more a documentation weakness than a bug since a very careful
	reading and/or experience might  make you recognize the boot failure as
	due to this.

The problem is that the xp driver assumes that a disk with drive type 025 is
an Emulex SC-21V/300 Mb rather than an RM02.  There are two files which must
be changed.  The raw document is doc/kernel.ms.

	diff doc/kernel.ms.old doc/kernel.ms:
	257c257
	< 024	RM03	32/5
	---
	> 024	RM02/RM03	32/5

The nroffed document is located in kernel/src/cmd/standalone/tapes/instructions.

	diff instructions.old instructions:
	304c304
	<         024             RM03                    32/5
	---
	>         024             RM02/RM03               32/5

This change should be applied to all tapes made before 9/28/81.
