Any chance it's similar to MOP over Ethernet?
No idea, but it's a reasonable guess.
If so then I think you want a fairly standard .TSK
file with important
stuff in block 0:
+10 (L$BSA) = .word <load address>
+16 (L$BLDZ) = .word <load size in 32-word MMU units>
+350 (L$BXFR) = .word <transfer address>
+360 (L$BBLK) = .word <total # 512-byte blks in header, e.g. 1>
Is this all stuff that's in the task header? The RSX system image .SYS
file (the one on disk, for booting with the hardware boot) is built without
a task header (the TKB /-HD option) and things like the loading and starting
addresses are assumed somehow. I was guessing that the .SYS files for MOP
download would be the same, but maybe I'm wrong.
