Here is a transcript running the stand alone utility 'config' to set the configuration of RAM, disk, video, and other peripherals on an Apollo workstation.
Bold type is user input.
NOTE: ESDI drives are referenced by 'w' but SCSI drives are referenced by 'w6:0' or 'w5:0', etc., where the digit is the SCSI ID.
