I just
downloaded and built simh V2.9. I was able to boot the
RA90 disk image I created for Charon-VAX. No timeout, full
Just to be nit-picky, that would be V2.9-5. source, with
Ethernet support coming. There's supposed to
be a couple of bugs, but I haven't found them yet.
Ethernet is coming?!?! When? I could really use ethernet support for the
PDP-11 version of SIMH! BTW, how does the speed of the VAX version compare to
real hardware?
I haven't tested the speed at this time. There's also a gcc
bug that prevents using optimization on the VAX emulation.
The PDP10 emulation was also affected but there's been a
workaround added. The workaround is supposed to go in the
VAX emulation later (from the release notes).
