It works now!!!
I never did find the diagnostic listings, but the problem was not in
the RL8A.
The problem was in the home-made semiconductor memory I had been
using. I had never used it for databreak operations before. It works
now!!
I made a bootable OS/8 RL02 pack last night. the RL2SY.BN handler
works fine, but the non-system handler RL20.BN seems not to work. I
saw a posting here on alt.sys.pdp8 from a few years back from a fellow
trying to build a system on an emulator that encountered the same
problem. I will try RL20AB from the OS/78 V4 distribution (an RL02 non-
system handler) and see if I have better luck.
For all the deficiencies the RL8A may have, I have never seen OS/8 run
faster on my 8/e than it does now!! And units with 4000 blocks of
storage, oh my!!
