If RT-11 is your fancy - or even if it is not, at least it
can be a start, download the distribution from:

You will need to UnZip the distributions, of course.
Then just ATTACH the "filename" and BOOT.
I will try this in a moment. RT11 V.5 was my first experience with PDP11
stuff, when I got my first 11/73 system. It had RT11SJ and a single 51/4"
HD, and I found the console port by repeatedly booting the machine while
watching various serial card Berg pins with a scope...
I hear there are RSX-11 and RSTS/E distributions
available as well, but I am an RT-11 addict.
I will look for them too - I am especially interested in RSX because I
wish to build a complete simulation of my existing 11/44 system.
Did I answer your question.
I believe so - I need to try it out now.
I would appreciate some
help in setting up a compile/link environment for use
under Windows 98 SE unless you and other fellows
can change V2.10 source files to again provide VT100
emulation as does V2.9-11. But I would prefer to
spend all of my time in enhancing RT-11 distributions.
I am only an egg re: the above. Havta ask the Software Gurus - I'm just
a nerd with a soldering iron.
Your help is very much appreciated!
Cheers
