Well, when I type .DIR it says
?ILL-CMD?
and when I type .R DIR it says
?FIL-NOT-FND? (could have different vowels and consonants deleted)
When I boot the disk it also asks for a "Scratch" disk in drive 1, which is
promptly sets DX1=DK
I'll try the PIP options. As I recall from very foggy memories PIP was like
the main thing. No online docs of course and the previous owner of this H11
didn't see fit to keep them with it.
Clearly the H27 floppies are RX01 clones although they also have an
"extended" mode which may allow for double density operation.
More importantly they allow you to format disks :-)
Oh, and I tried an 11/23 CPU and it wouldn't boot, it halts out with a
173xxx address.
