In summary, anyone with a spare M8650, M8655, or other
serial card can now
boot OS/8, even if you don't have an RK05, DECtape, RX01/02, etc.!
--- Congratulations Kyle!!!!
Having a PC emulate a disk drive via a serial port could be a huge help in getting PDP-8s
going. For those of us who do have RK05s, etc., it's a great backup tool for when
there are issues with the drive. Could also serve as a second drive with which to make
backups and such. I really look forward to trying this out.
