formatting an RD54 with on a pdp11/73

M8190, 2 megs ram, rqdx3 controller.. booted Jonathon E.'s modified vtserver to run boot.dd and the ZRQCH0.BIN dumped in E11 from xxdp25.rl02 pathed for boot.dd.. then tried to format a proper (sadly prev. PC formatted) RD54 on an M9058 distrib. card (one drive, DS set to DS3, and terminated) (I've also got all 4WP/drive ready switches/leds attached but none show activity on bootup.. so it looks like ZRQCH0 never even talks to the RD54) ZRQC SYS FTL ERR 00006 ON UNIT 00 TST 001 SUB 000 PC: 105742 Fatal Controller Error During Initialization. ZRQC SYS FTL ERR 00006 ON UNIT 00 TST 001 SUB 002 PC: 105742 Fatal Controller Error During Initialization. ZRQC EOP 1 2 TOTAL ERRS Anyone know what these error messages below mean? Am I using the wrong image for an RQDX3 - maybe ZRQCH0.BIN wants an RQDX2? I googled around, looked on bitsavers but couldn't find any explanation. damn - I wish I had a qbus scsi controller or at least a vaxstation2000! Anybody up to putting an IDE drive ON QBUS via a DRV11? Regards heinz
