Boy is my memory faulty. I spent 3 years working for DG as a systems engineer and many
more doing DG stuff for my own customers. Old age, I guess.
I checked a listing of DG device codes from an MV/20000 functional characteristics manual.
If there is any consistency between that world and the Desktop Generation world then you
should try 33L.
At worst just work thru the octal numbers from 01 to 76 (00 and 77 are reserved device
codes for the CPU itself).

Yep. I think you are right. I had the B and device

Hi,
I think if this is similar to the Rolm's virtual consoles, the correct
syntax would be to enter the device address followed by "B" for boot. i.e.
"33B" would do a channel boot from the floppy drive (Miltope type).
Ehm...
nB sets breakpoints (max 8)
B alone displays the breakpoints...
The right command should be
nL
Load from device
But I don't know the correct device number.
I tried some codes found in internet (but infos are really poor), with no activity on the
floppy drive or on the hard disk.
