Hi Joseph,
# cp hptmconf myconfnf
# echo 4dc >> myconf
looks like a typo. If you actually typed this, all that would be in
myconf would be 4dc. You need the contents of hptmconf plus 4dc.
Otherwise you'd be missing some important devices.

hello all,
i am a new unix user, so please excuse my ignorance.
I am trying to setup using unixV7 with simh pdp11 emulator. The guide
i am following is by Will Senn (in PDF form). I have been able to
successfully get the machine to boot with unix, and login as root.
what i am having problems with, is trying to get telnet access via dci
to work. when i follow the guide and do the following:
# cd /usr/sys/conf
# rm l.o c.o
# cp hptmconf myconfnf
# echo 4dc >> myconf
# mkconf < myconf
# make
as - -o l.o l.s
cc -c c.c
ld -o unix -X -i l.o mch.o c.o ../sys/LIB1 ../dev/LIB2
# sum unix
10314
106
# ls -l unix
-rwxrwxr-x 1 root
54122 Dec 31 19:09 unix
etc...
when i issue the mkconf < myconf command, i get a bunch of text
printed out, but with a 'root device not found'. the sum unix value is
different, as well as the size of the ls -l unix file size.. now when
i try booting it with the newly created mboot.ini file (as per the
guide), i go to start up the system with 'hp(0,0)munix' and it starts
but hangs with the text 'fault devtab'
what am I doing wrong?
regards,
Joseph Turco
