Which brings me to my question, I went ahead and
plugged the TU-58 drives
in to see if they would give any indication of life. Not a thing. Do they
have to be plugged into the line (serial I think), or have a tape in them
before they will show any signs of life?
They need the serial port connection to do anything.
Boot dd0 should get the light lit even without a tape in.
(I think... it's been 10 years since I booted an 11 with TU58's)
