TSX doesn't boot from "bare metal". It
requires RT-11 there to boot. Once
RT-11 boots, then you run TSX. At that point, TSX replaces most all of RT-11
with itself - I don't think it leaves much of RT11 if any (in memory) after
it loads.
So... after RT-11 boots, do "R TSX"
To modify accounts... "R TSAUTH"

Thanks, Jay! I did that and TSX-Plus Version 5.0 started right up.
It executes several small .com files and then put up a big splash
screen on the VT220 for "DBL/RT11/TSX by mumble mumble
Corporation" or something like that, but freezes halfway through
it and won't do anything until reboot.
Now I just need to download a TSX+ manual and figure out how to
remove/modify the startup files.
Is this disk something the list is interested in, or is it easy to
find a working TSX image elsewhere? (Regardless, I'm going to
preserve the disk since it's another OS to play with).
