General Errata

Errata other than A0E cross reference corrections and changes to the FPGA and microcontroller installation instructions.

Note: You can sort by page or by date, and you can print the list or download a pdf. Errata are corrected in successive printings, with approximate cutoff dates where applicable; so you can scroll down a date-sorted list to find needed corrections.
