Just wondering if anyone has tried to run TSX-Plus under SIMH?
Thanks to another list member, I was able to obtain a copy of the
version 6.50 distribution (on "simulated floppy"). It took me all
afternoon to re-learn how to use EDIT (which *really* makes you
appreciate modern full-screen editors!) and modify TSGEN.MAC. I set it
up to match the existing settings of my DLV11/16D card (whichappears
as two DLV11's). TSGEN assembles without errors.
There are some linker errors though, but the manual says at least some
of them are to be expected.
I copied the new TSX files and RT11SJ 4.0 over to the simulated RL02
and boot from it. RT-11 boots normally. But when attempting to execute
TSX.SAV, SIMH gives an error and halts...
I can't see anything wrong with the system generation but it's a lot
of work to create a pack with VTServer for the new hardware if it's
got a bug. I'm wondering if SIMH can't handle the time-sharing stuff
or lack of a simulated DHV11 card. Any thoughts?
thanks
