Actually, I meant the RL02 terminator. I have been entering bootstrap
Only needed for RL02. Not the RX02 as mentioned.
code by hand since one of my bootstrap ROMs went
pins-up a couple of
weeks ago - you may remember I posted asking about favoured boot ROM
images? Not to mention entering quite a lot of code into ODT by hand
when I first got my 11/73 and *nothing* would play nicely...
Originally the Baydel multipurpose card could boot pretty much any
common QBus mass storage.
Like the bdv11 (m8012).
The RQDX will
need the distribution board to breakout the floppy and HD
connection from the 50pin cable. If you find prints it's something
that can be wire wrapped (it's only connectors). The boot for MSCP
disks is also possible to hand enter.
Got the breakout board, in the BA23. Haven't played with it yet though.
