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?
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.
I'm still trying to scrape up a SCSI controller, but other than that, I
think I should be okay.
Anyone see any problems with this?
Thanks,
Tom
