Thanks, that revised rauboot file got things moving. I'm now at a shell
prompt.
A new mystery though, a df reveals all available disks space (300MB) is
used. Deleting files does free up space, but there should definitely by
far more free space than this.
Under simh, a df on the image shows 41582 blocks used out of 284405
(15%)
On the real machine, df shows 282742 out of 284405 blocks used.
I've run fsck to see if this would resolve, but no joy.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Toby

Here is an rauboot.s that I think will work.

I thought that it got added to the distribution, but I could be wrong.
My -11/73 has a CQD220 in it and it boots fine. I will check to see what
that bootblock code looks like.
FWIW, I used the SCSI disk method to bootstrap 2.11BSD onto my -11/73.
Although it was a bit more complex because it was before simh supported
MSCP disks.

That might be the problem then, its a CQD/200M
Anyone know any details on the patch? My initial googling is drawing a
blank.
From the description of 2.11BSD patch # 441
Description:
3. The MSCP bootblock would not work with a CMD CQD220 adaptor due
to the bootblock relying on the (undocumented?) behaviour of DEC
adaptors.
