Yes, it is the same 20 bytes. You can find them described in the Inside
MacIntosh manual on Operating System Utility routines. This includes
routines for reading from and writing to the parameter RAM (as it's called)
as well as a reasonable description of what's stored there. Most of the
things are those which are set by the control panel, but it also includes
the alarm clock setting and preferred system startup disk.

Enjoy,
Mark
