Hmm, this link didn’t work for me; I found I think equivalent mirrored at:

    https://www.tuhs.org/Archive/Distributions/Research/Ken_Wellsch_v6/

...which directory contains several file system images and one tape image, “v6.tape”.  When I mount that on a virtual TU10 under SIMH and key in the bootstrap from you linked doc, I get:

"Unexpected internal error while processing event for TM0 which returned 102 - Invalid magtape record length"

Is that tape image maybe not compatible with SIMH’s tape format?

	thanks,
