Kermit would be running under RT-11 the all I'd be doing is copying a tar.z file over or make the detar'd files over to files under rt-11 structures. I need more on genning a bootable image from RT-11. While I'm comfortable in a lot of systems unix generally is not one save for user level activity. The only unix I have running currently is xenix on pro350 and linix on PC. I can't say how useful either would be to this project.

Sender: owner-pups(a)minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au Precedence: bulk Hi dear PUPS! It is about one week gone from the mome I got sufficiently powerful PDP-11. Before this I ran LSI-11/02 under RT-11 and couldn't think about unix. Those new machine is the main reason for joining to this list for me. It includes: KDF-11 CPU, RQDX3, DHQ11 8 line async option, TQK70 tape controller, 1.5Mbyte of memory etc. etc. I also have the complete BSD2.9 source distribution in tar file and like to run all of the above. Currently I've started KDF11 and it seems to be ok. Problems are: It has lots of switches (the same for MSV-11 boards and RQDX3 and all of that) and have very little docs about how to set it correctly. When I tried to bring up the KDF with memory at once KDF said : no memory :-] but it runs ok with little 32K memory board from LSI-11/2 ! Seems to me that my MSV-11 boards have wrong starting address settings or something... Same story with RQDX3 - currently I have no RDx disks so I thought that boot my system from RX50 is not a bad idea... I've plugged standard 5 inch floppy to RQDX3 sig. dist. connector labeled "RX50" and fired up the machine. Got nothing. I tried to investigate what happens to bootstrap. I've detected that during init of mscp controller it successfully undergoes steps 1 and 2 ( or maybe even 3) but in next step it returns 0 in SA and bootstrap waits for eternity when controller will enter next step... Looks like hardware fault, ha? Then I tried to check my TQK70 board. It had nothing connected to it, and I traced it's initialization sequence the same way. IT ALSO RETURNS ZERO in 3rd or 4th init step!. Can anyone help with the above? Sincerely yours - Stacy.
