I've updated that text a little

I've added a proposal in that text how to make a "AXPpci33 VMS kit":

        I've made axppci33 version of Multia kit by deleting
        everything else but SYS$CPU_ROUTINES_0B04.EXE and
        FIRM_REV_MATRIX.DAT (Contains entries for other Alphas).
        It can be used like Multia kit:
        >>> boot dka400,dva0 -fl 0,80000
        where dka400 is normal VMS CD or system disk and dva0
        contains AxpPCI33 kit. Kit is as backup saveset in
        http://www.jyu.fi/~kujala/axppci33.bck [File attributes:
        $ set file/attr=(rfm:fix,lrl:32256)...] and as raw floppy
        image (use $copy, dd, rawrite...) in
        http://www.jyu.fi/~kujala/axppci33.dd .

It's rather carelessly done (f. ex. no documentation included), but
maybe Robert and others could test it and if you feel there's something
useful feel free to use as you wish.

Of course there's even better way to this. Those little modifications
could be included in standard OpenVMS :-). Hoff, do you think it would be
too tough?
