9:02 a.m.
has died, which threw me off for a _long_ while, but I
finally got a
boot monitor, and then brought up the OS. RSX-11M+
What version? If you've got a /93 the OS is probably fairly modern! The
current is V4.6. What is the system using for a disk?
So will this guy boot from Tim Shoppa's RT-11 CD?
No, none of Tim's CD's are bootable. Also, be aware, that it isn't exactly
easy to find a hardware combination that will allow a PDP-11 to talk to a
CD-ROM. I use a Viking SCSI controller (which needs almost current ROMs to
be able to handle CD-ROM's) and a DEC RRD-42.
