Folks,
I'm trying to get BSD 4.2 running on a VAX 11/780/simh setup. This is
working well under OpenBSD. I have the 4.2 BSD VM up and running. I'm
having difficulty with networking. I'm using the pre-compiled simh
package from OpenBSD which has networking support and running it as
root to make sure it has access to the network interface. simh seems
to be attaching to the network interface; I'm getting status messages
about how Eth is attached, etc. simh is 3.9.
No network devices to show up under the OS, though. Given that 4.2 BSD
has TCP, is made for VAX, etc, the default kernel should automagically
detect the network "card" presented by the emulator, right? For some
reason it isn't. I also tried the other xu type=deluna (I think that's
it, I don't remember from memory.)
Here is my boot.ini
set cpu 128m
set rq0 ra81
att rq0 rq.dsk
set rq1 dis
set rq2 dis
set rq3 dis
set xu enabled
set xu type=deuna
att xu0 em0
set rp dis
set lpt dis
set rl dis
set tq dis
set tu dis
set tti 7b
set tto 7b
load -o boot42 0
d r10 9
d r11 0
run 2
Is it an ordering/address space thing? Do I have to throw the "xu"
stuff further down in the file?
Thanks!
