(I realize the startup-sequence needs to be modified for Gold Core, but when the Vamp is bricked, you can't ever reach the early boot menu..)

And the Apollo ISA must reach a defined state, where no more instructions are added or removed every few weeks.

The idea of the Gold core is that all but the FPU is complete. BTW, I've emailed you the preliminary encodings if you're willing to update them in VAsm.

Gunnar just posted APOLLO Instruction Decoder document.
i can read "opcode" there - maybe something to make it into an assembler?!

You are correct.
