Boy, this is nudging some long-dormant brain cells...
To write a bootstrap on V2(B or C), I believe the incantation is:
.R PIP
*DY1:A=DY1:MONITR.SYS/O
*
the 'A' is a dummy file name to satisfy the requirments of the
CSI, the /O is the option for writing the boot, using blocks
from the file MONITR.SYS (which was listed in the directory
Chuck supplied earlier).
