You using my copy or do you have your own? Using emulator or real machine?
I am using your copy, with SIMH 4.0, on the PiDP8 replica.. I'd love to have
a real 8, but I have neither the space or permission for anything that
large.
I found the .TIFF manual on another site, and PDF'd it.
I also got Multos8 from you, and was playing with it too. That one, I
haven't figured out how to add a second serial terminal to the unit. One
works fine, the other causes SIMH to freak out with lots of blinky lights
before it or the PDP8 finally crashes.
I'm sure it's a problem with BUILD configuration. I haven't had much luck
with it.

Thanks for the response. I guess not
to many people have messed around
with
Multos8 or ETOS.
I'm trying to add an OS/8 disk pack so I can
mess around with the
timesharing on two terminals.
Using SIMH since I only have one RK05 on the machine right now.
