Evening...
I'm fighting with trying to get my disk formatted so I can use my PDP-11s.
;)
Tape records are:
0 zrqch0
1 zrqah0
2 zrqch0
3 zrqah0
Opening port /dev/ttyUSB0 .... Port open
?
Opened zrqch0 read-write
rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
And it stalls after that many R and goes no further. I have no
alternative means to boot XXDP on this system...my only option is vtserver
until I get a drive formatted.
What hardware do you have in the -11 system? I seem to recall that
vtserver requires 128K to function properly. (Also -- I don't suppose
you have a second SLU, which would allow booting from emulated TU58...)
What baud rate are you running this at? I've had a bit of trouble here
and there with USB serial ports, you might try a different baud rate,
start with something slow...
