loading disk image on PDP-11

Date: Sat, 6 Jun 2009 22:13:45 -0600 Subject: loading disk image on PDP-11 From: iamvirtual at gmail.com To: cctech at classiccmp.org I am finally ready to load a disk image onto a RK05 disk for my PDP-11/10. I have RK05 disk images for RSTS-11 (my goal). What is the easiest way to load the disk image onto a RK05 cartridge? I was thinking of using vtserver to transfer the image over a serial line, but the 'copy' program is not compatible with my PDP-11/05 (it uses the 'mul' and 'div' instructions which is not available on my PDP-11/10). Here is what I have available: PDP-11/10 with 32kw core memory serial connection (max 2400 baud) RK05 (non-bootable cartridge but does load properly) external dual TU58 DecTapeII drive Many thanks for any information. I am really looking for a nudge in the right direction. ;-) --barrym
