Ok, and putting what I believe are 2 and 2 together,
In a previous message I listed the contents of a two
disk set that claims
to be RT-11V2C. On those disks were files of the form:
xxMNTFB.sys
So to create a bootable volume, you find the one for your device, then
copy it using PIP onto freshly formatted media as MONITR.SYS and then
write the boot block using /U. Am I close?
"By George, I think he's got it..."
I seem to remember that you don't even have to rename the file
to MONITR.SYS, but that's typically what we did.
