Cool! Thanks for your advice, it works great now!
Now the problem I have is trying to set up Dungeo (and adventure and such
like...) on this machine. The only source I can find is for VMS (off the
trailing edge website)... I've experimented with using a rt11 .sav file,
but so far no dice.
Does anyone have .sav versions of these old games for RSTS/E? Or the
fortran sources for RSTS?
Wow. 12 hours to test a disk. Ah, the good old days. I thought it was
slow (at about 10 minutes) on my 366 laptop... (;
I'm working out an idea in my head to interface the whole thing though my
(homebrew) Ruby BBS. Might mean creating a couple
hundred accounts, though...
Thanks for all your help. This is a great group. I think you guys are
stuck with me now.
Take Care,
Mark

get a copy of the real thing, that will hopefully solve your problem.

Bob, just released V3.0, V2.3 is *very* old.
Thought for the day, installing RSTS/E by the book on a 2GB drive on a
PDP-11/73 is "fun", it takes forever to do the three checks of the
drive! As I recall, just one pass took over 12 hours. On an emulator,
it's very fast.
