RSX-11M and CSR's

I think RSX has something called autoconfig which will tell you how
your system is configured (apparently by actually touching the
hardware).... RT-11 can only tell you a part of the information,
and only if it matches the configuration of the handers...

        SHOW CONFIG

will tell you about the machine itself (processor, memory, fpu, etc)

while

        SHOW DEVICES

will list all the devices for which at least the CSR the handler knows
about responds... even if the CSR is the wrong one for that handler...
