Oh, I didn’t know that either!

Yes, I did enable overlapped seek during SYSGEN, and I did just have some 
trouble with overlapped seeks on my RK11-C (though I repaired that well enough 
to pass the associated MAINDEC before trying RSTS).

I’ll try a non-overlap SYSGEN soon/next -- right now it takes me a little over 
two hours to image a pack using PDP11GUI and a DL11 at 9600 baud, which is a 
bit painful.  So I’d like to capture some logic analyzer traces off the RK11-C 
while I have this repro case before I write over my current pack.  If there is 
something still up with my overlapped seeks, I’d like to characterize and fix 
it anyway.

        cheers,
