Thanks a lot !!!
That was what I was looking for ...
Nevertheless, mounting the file and boot dl0: leads to the boot-prompt @
After typing unix the boot-prompt appears again - does the kernel have a
different name ?
Thanks in advance

Hello Gregg, thanks for your immediate response !
I recently found the article 'Booting 7th Edition UNIX Images' on the
'vmsnet.pdp-11'-Newsgroups:
<--- SNIP --->
ftp://ftp.digital.com/pub/DEC/sim/sources/
ftp://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/pub/PDP-11-sims/Supnik_2.2d/sources/
Once you get it, you have to compile the simulator. You also need to fetch
the 7th Edition UNIX disk images as well; they are available from the above
ftp sites in the software directory (i.e replace sources with software.
Unpack
the 7th Edition tarball in the same directory as the one you built the
simulator. The only file you require is disks/unix_v7_rl.dsk
<--- SNIP --->
What I wanted to say is that the above ftp-links are dead. You are right, I
should
look for the compressed tarball, but I don't know how the tarball is called
and
looking for 'unix_v7_rl.dsk' on google only leads to other dead links ...
Any hints ?

Hello from Gregg C Levine
How do you mean by that? " The links pointing to the 'unix_v7_rl.dsk'
image I found are dead ... :-(" You said. How so? As I recall, that file
that's in there, for unix_v7_rl.dsk" is there, it's a totally different
UNIX_v7 file name, you need to call it that for the E11 product. For
SIMH, the full name as rendered by the extraction process from the
compressed file works.

Hello,
I just read the instructions of how to boot a binary version 7 disk image
on a ersatz11 pdp11 emulator.
The links pointing to the 'unix_v7_rl.dsk' image I found are dead ... :-(
Are there any other sites where I can download this binary distribution ??
BTW their are disk dumps of version 7 in the Caldera ancient unix archive
.. is it possible to boot
them on ersatz11 as well ? I tried it a few times without success ...
I simply tried it with the following e11.ini (from a newsgroup discussion),
because I heavily lack
PDP 11 hardware knowledge. Nevertheless trying this ini-file and many
variations I made of it all
end up in a blank emulator screen ...
Any ideas will be appreciated

I recall a thread about this only a few months ago. Check out the TUHS mail archive - I seem to recall that someone had ported V7 to the x86 architecture. Me, I have a PDP-11/34 in my basement.... -- Ian

Subject: [TUHS] port of old unices to i386?
Hi there.
I am a linux-user and I came across TUHS for the first time today
actually when I was searching google for old unices. I love linux and
am very interested in the history of unix. For some time I have wanted
to try out some early versions of unix as I am in my early 20's and was
born too late to have been around those days :( I havn't found any
people to ask about this till today :) Anyway, I browsed the
filearchive and I guess the distributions there surely won't work on my
computer. Is there a way to get them work on a i386 computer? Have
someone made any ports of an early unix system to i386 out of
nostalgia? If not, could someone take it on as a hobbyproject so that
new generations of unix-like-OS-users can explore it? It would be both
fun and also very educational to play around with I am sure.
I hope this email gets through and that I didn't annoy you guys.
I have not signed up for this list I just emailed tuhs(a)minnie.tuhs.org
directly and hoped it would get through :) Please send replies to
jesperjacobsson(a)yahoo.se
Answers would be very appriciated!
Thanks in advance,
Jesper

Hi Mitch,
you'll find the program enblock.c at
http://www.ba-stuttgart.de/~helbig/os/v6/
that I wrote to prepare the v6 distribution tape for SIMH.
With v7, you need to apply different block sizes like (f0, f1, ... f6 from Keith Bostic):
enblock <f0 >dist.tap
enblock <f1 >>dist.tap
...
enblock <f4 >>dist.tap
enblock 10240 <f5 >>dist.tap
enblock 10240 <f6 >>dist.tap
enblock </dev/null >>dist.tap
Enblock puts an EOF tapemark at the end. The last invocation puts an EOT mark.
Have fun,
Wolfgang
