In my quest to boot my vax 730 I ran into the gummer
roller problem.
I fixed that but my tu58 seems to be unhappy. As part of debugging
it I made a little DB-9 adapter for the 10 pin header so I can run
tu58sim and the tu58 emulator.
The 730 appears to run the tu58 at 38400 baud and will talk to the
tu58 simulator just fine. So now, naturally I'd like to try and give
it some valid micro code :-)
Does anyone have a file image of any sort of 730 console boot? I
don't care if it's current, I just need something to test.
I don't have any images for the 11/730... but I too am searching for
images - but for my 11/750. If anyone has images of tapes used on the
11/750, please let me know.
