What is the "modern way" to get
software into the PDP11?
I use a ZIP drive and a Qbus MSCP disc controller.
A software-only solution (though much slower) is to use the
TU58 simulation software that is around
Trust me it's faster! I've run both. The software needs to run
at 19.2k or faster to be realistic.
And another tip when using the TU58 simulator is to NOT run it under
Windows 9x, which handles DOS serial port access VERY POORLY. Run it in
pure DOS. Better yet, run the Linux version.
Here's a jumping off point to the TU58 simulator:
