Yes, but you were not able to attach in your startup script? That's when
to do it.

I've been experimenting with the SIMH VAX

only way I know of to mount a tape, disk pack, CD-ROM, etc. after boot time
is to halt the simulation with ^e to get to the SIMH command prompt, ATTACH
the desired image, and then resume the simulation with CONTINUE.
Is there any way to attach/detach media images in SIMH without halting the
simulation? I've tried putting the system console on a telnet port so it
doesn't occupy SIMH's controlling terminal, and I found that it's still
necessary to halt the simulation to get back to the SIMH command prompt.
