think V03B was the last release of V3.)
They exist, but they aren't available.
There are holes in what is known to
still exist. I'm not aware of any copies of V1 (was there even a V1?). I
know that copies of both versions you mention are known to exist.
Jerome Fine replies:
Prior to V5.00 of RT-11, DEC sent out patch files to
update the old versions - as far as I know.
Thus there may not have been exact definitions of releases
not on the major versions. I am fairly sure that some files
for V02C and V03B exist, but it depends on if you want
a pure set of files for these two versions or just something
that works.
PLUS, is there a specific reason why you are asking about
versions from the 1970s?
I myself am attempting to find these old RT-11 distributions
so that they can be archived. In particular, I would like
RK05 images so that they are one single file, but floppy
images will also be great. In addition, even a directory
listing from an RK05 would then help, but please try to
include the VOLUME / OWNER information as well.
Some images of RT-11 distributions are at:
