Why would you be using ISO? My plan was just to dd
copy (with unix
cdrecord) a bootable RT-11 SCSI disk to the CD. Assuming that if I had a
bootable RT-11 SCSI disk as /dev/rz4c on a unix machine, with cdrecord, I
would just do this:
dd if=/dev/rz4c ibs=64k obs=64k | cdrecord -dev 3,5,0 -speed=2 -
Will this work?
Basically this is what I've done. Though I think I had the block size
seriously cranked down (no idea if that matters). I first went to an image
file, and then I FTP'd it to my Mac and burned it to CD-R (I didn't have a
CD-R attached at the time).
This week, I'm going to hook up my remaining RX02
drive to a VMS machine
and copy the data off the RX02's. At that point, all I should need is an
image of v5.03 of RT-11 with my program, which I can then burn to a CD.
Stuff your RX02 images in an RL02 image using PUTR.COM, then you just need
to get the RL02 image onto your RT-11 system (I have TCP/IP working on my
PDP-11/73 so I just FTP it).
