	Has anybody had good luck with putting HP 600-some MB or HP 1.2 GB
disks as the boot disk on a DECstation 5000/200 running Ultrix 4.X?  We're 
currently using some as second drives(and booting off DEC drives) and things
seem to work OK.  But, I've heard there were some firmware problems that made
booting off the HP drives difficult.
