There's a piece of code in it that I had to comment out that I dont understand and I want to ask about it: } - write(3, rom, sizeof(rom)); + /* I dont know what this was for, but it spews garbage + * out telnet to the vax, causing it to hang. + */ + //write(3, rom, sizeof(rom)); } I'm not sure what fd 3 is intended to be, but its the telnet socket in p9p.
