Hello, I've been playing with the Interdata simulator and trying to get OS32 8.1 from bitsavers to run. I searched the archives and the only information I found was from Feb 2006.
If someone can help, I have a couple of questions: 1) The boot steps for an 8-32 cpu in the installation manual (04-082M95R16_OS32v8.1Installation_May85.pdf) don't seem to work. It seems as if the AutoLoad, "AL" (D500), instruction doesn't work. Is this a "feature" or am I doing something wrong? 2) I boot the "starter" tape but am unable to load the "backup" program to "unpack" the tape. Here's a log: ./id32 Interdata 32b simulator V4.0-0 Beta git commit id: fa407e67 sim> set cpu 832 sim> att dm0 test0.dsk sim> att mt0 04-082M71R16S_OS32_starter.tap sim> d 78 85a18540 sim> boot mt0 OS32MT08-01.OS32MTS1 LICENSE MEMORY TEST IN PROGRESS END OF MEMORY TEST UNAVAILABLE MEMORY BLOCKS = 0 ENTER DATE AND TIME *SET TIME 01/26/16,19:09:00 *L BACKUP LOAD-ERR TYPE=VOL POS=BACKUP * The operator manual doesn't explain this specific error message. Any ideas of what I'm doing wrong? Don _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
