+&arch-title; machines are generally self-configuring and do not require
+firmware configuration. However, you should make sure that you have
+the appropriate ROM and system patches. On the Macintosh, MacOS
+version >= 7.1 is recommended because version 7.0.1 contains a bug in
+the video drivers preventing the boot loader from deactivating the
+video interrupts, resulting in a boot hang. On the BVM VMEbus systems
+you should make sure you are using BVMBug revision G or higher boot ROMs.
+The BVMBug boot ROMs do not come as standard on the BVM systems but are
+available from BVM on request free of charge.
