Hello,

The answer to my question is: yes, the RA7000 can be
configured to boot from it

Thanks a lot for your answers specialty to:

Each controller of the RA7000 has its own PCMCIA card that
it boots from. It doesn't need a host. Most systems should
be able to boot from an RA7000, since it simply presents
its devices as ordinary SCSI devices. Some older hosts may
have trouble with non-zero logical units, but recent systems
shouldn't.

Sure, no problem. We boot off RA7000s and the older 410s.
