All,
I can't believe it's been 9 years since I wrote up my original notes on
getting Research Unix v7 running in SIMH. Crazy how time flies. Well,
this past week Clem found a bug in my scripts that create tape images.
It seem like they were missing a tape mark at the end. Not a showstopper
by any means, but we like to keep a clean house. So, I applied his fixes
and updated the scripts along with the resultant tape image and Warren
has updated them in the archive:

I've also updated the note to address the fixes, to use the latest
version of Open-SIMH on Linux Mint 21.3 "Virginia" (my host of choice
these days), and to bring the transcripts up to date:

Later,
Will
