I just
downloaded and built simh V2.9. I was able to boot the
RA90 disk image I created for Charon-VAX. No timeout, full
Just to be nit-picky, that would be V2.9-5.
The archive is simhv29.zip, and that's what Bob called it, so
I was guessing the -x were the test releases and V2.9 was the
actual release.
His packageing is a bit confusing, I think it's to keep him from having to
modify the HTML on the web page. V2.9 was released on the 3rd of February,
while V2.9-5 was released.... (OK, I'm not sure when in the last few days
it was released, I just learned about it today).
I just saw the announcement today, too.
People are
working on DELQA support, but I don't know the
current status.
I'd gathered the real holdup is that Bob wants a platform indepentent
solution, something that just isn't going to happen. Still, I don't think
that the DZ11 emulation is platform independant so hopefully we'll see
something for UNIX in the near future. Once this is available, I've got to
wonder how much I'll actually use my PDP-11's!
I'm trying the latest version of TS10 (just updated today).
There's support for DEQNA/DELQA/DESQA, but I'm trying the
code right now.
