The Sparc boot ROM comes in two flavours: an ``old-style'' ROM is used in
sun4 machines, while A ``new-style'' ROM can be found on sun4c and sun4m models.
The ``new-style'' Sparc boot ROM is a full-featured Forth system with emacs
key bindings. It can be put in ``old-style'' user-interface compatibility
mode (in which case it shows a simple `\*[Gt]' prompt), but this is essentially
useless. However, by default the rom runs in old-mode; to enter new-mode type `n'.
The rom then shows a Forth-style `ok' prompt. It is recommended to have
the rom always start in its native ``new-style'' mode. Utter the following

achieved by sending a `break').
