From what I have been able to tell, in the PDP-11,
the
order of the cards matters, and their addresses need
to be set manually, right? How to do this, I'm not sure.
Wasn't this system preconfigured when you got it?
That would say to me that it was likely already 90-99%
ready.
At any rate it will be useful to record the card and slot
location info for your system for later.
I don't know for sure that I have the tape drive
connected
right though.
The cables are labelled P1 and P2. Locate the pin 1 point
on the source, cable and destination and line 'em all up,
once for each cable.
Here is the boot program I'm trying to use:
Might be useful but more likely with this system is that it
would boot by loading just one address first, just my hunch
for now.
