exists_

? END-OF-FILE

While reading a file, the end of the file
was encountered before it was expected_

? END-OF-MEDIUM

An end-of-medium indication was

MAP FILE

MODULE NAME
NOT FOUND

The operator attempted to specify a
module name in the MOD command
without first loading the proper MAP
FILE.

The specified module name does not

? WRONG MAP FILE
FOR MONITOR
TYPE

Default device names are not allowed.

The driver for the specified device will
not fit into memory.
The value typed was too large for its
intended purpose.

The specified multiprocessor CPU does
not exist.

The MAP FILE in memory does not have
the specified monitor type.

NONSTANDARD CSR
If your system device has a nonstandard CSR, patch location 20 of
the monitor and location 24 of the. read Iwrite driver to the correct value. In patching the monitor, it is necessary to patch the .SYS file, then
do a SAVM to the disk.
