HSC50s booted from TU58 - not a pretty sight if you'd had a power failure
and needed to restart everything. Fortunately, the site I worked at had
HSC70s which booted of RX33s and even then booting seemed to take forever
when there was a horde of angry axe-wielding users just outside the
computer room :-)
