I think I am interested in these CDs. I have a few
questions though. I
apologize in advance for any "newbie" questions. Can I use these CDs with
E-11 or simh? Also how many different CDs are you creating? (If you order 3
are they all the same?) Also, can you paypal? (I would be willing to add a
service charge if you can.) Thanks for any answers you can provide.
I'm not sure about E11, but with SIMH, you should be able to 'dd' them to a
disk image, and access the RT-11 formated portion of the RT-11 CD from RT-11
and the ODS-1 formated RSX-11M/M+ CD from RSX-11M/M+.
I got copies of these when Tim first put them together, and I was able to
read both the RT-11 formated and ODS-1 formated one on my PDP-11/73 (under
the appropriate OS's).

Sorry, this was meant to be off list. I WILL get the hang of these
reply-to's.

If you are using simh under Linux, you can just point
to
"/dev/cdrom" and use them directly. No copying necessary.
Under Windows, this doesn't work, and you must make the
image file. Some CD burner software is able to do this
while under windows (like some versions of Nero).
That's new! I'd tried this about a year ago and it wouldn't work. Of course
it could have been due to my hardware or OS. I'll have to give this a try again.
