I have some old DEC RL01 packs with PDP-11
diagnostic utilities - these are DEC originals:
AX-E380L-MC DLDP+DIAG#1 + DECX A1 SYSTEM A
AX-E441L-MC CZZLBLO DLDP+DIAG #2 + CPUTST + DECX B1 SYS B
They won't last forever, and I don't have any spare media
to back them up to, so I'd like to archive this software onto
my PC (for posterity - or perhaps to make available
to other hobbyists for use in the emulator, though I'm not
sure whether the Mentec license would cover this - it does say
"and associated utilities" however).
The question is, how can I get a copy of a pack as a
binary image onto the PC ? (to load in simh for example ?)
I have a working serial port, and I can run kermit OK on RT-11. However,
even if RT-11 will read the pack in DL1: (and I'm not
even sure of that), how can I persuade kermit
to take a copy of DL1: as an image ? I haven't found
a way of doing this. Simply doing "get DL1:"
doesn't seem to work.
Is there any kermit-like software out there that has
a PC client and can do a disk image transfer ?
Thanks in advance,
F
