RSTS/E <-> RL02 working..

Well... having sysgenned my 11/44 RSTS/E V9.7 system some time ago to add RL02s (among other things), I have been unable to read/write files to the RL02s, which otherwise appeared normal on the system. (INITable, ERASEable, MOUNTable, etc.) Any and all file operations aborted with a "?Device not available" message. Using the recently acquired RSTS Orange Wall (from Bruce Lane), I have discovered the answer to the problem: one must *create an account* on the device after INITing, etc! [D'Oh!!] Once I did so, the drive assumed it's rightful place in the System and seems to work fine; I copied and erased and re-copied a diskfull of Stuff several times. NOW: at one time someone offered me a Bootrom for the RL02s so I can boot the 11/44 from them instead of the (DB0:) Fuji SMD. I need to go back into the mail archives and find that message again, but in the meantime.. I am looking for a 23-751A9 ROM to fit in the M7098 UBI. I will glady pay cloning/shipping/etc for it. Until then I am going to try booting from the RL02 by toggling in the loader code on the Console. But not Tonite! Cheers and thanks to all who offered help/advice!! John
