I'd configure the ROM to boot to RIM (or is it
BIN?) loader, and use the
console interface to talk to a PC and download the binary images. Anyone
done this?
In my PDP8/L I keyed in the RIM loader by hand and use it with
RIM-compatible binaries from my PC. Have connected a TTY/RS232 converter
and speeded the TTY port up to 9600 baud (needs some capacitor changes
and adjustments with the scope).
I also have written a simple tool which converts octal listings into rim
compatible data and back. That's all very simple and handy.
It is also easy to use the BIN loader over the serial port.
Feel free to ask me personally......

Philipp :-)
